Romaldi, Mr M.

Ms HILDYARD (Reynell) (15:04): My question is again to the Premier. Does the Premier agree that the offensive, sexist public comments made by Mr Romaldi constitute dishonourable conduct?

The Hon. J.A.W. GARDNER: Point of order: we have given a lot of latitude here, but standing order 97—

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order! Members on my left will not interject. I will listen to the point of order.

The Hon. J.A.W. GARDNER: The question as phrased just then does not fit within the rules allowed by standing order 97.

The SPEAKER: The point of order is that a member may not offer argument or perhaps opinion. Minister for Education, I uphold that point of order. I will move to the government side and I will come back to the member for Reynell.
