Senator WONG (South Australia—Leader of the Opposition in the Senate) (14:47): Mr President, I ask a further supplementary question. Can the minister confirm the foreign minister went 'bananas' at the Prime Minister after learning that she was to be chaperoned by Minister Robb at the UN climate conference? With the Defence minister frog-marching staff out the door, the foreign minister going bananas and the Prime Minister's office out of control, I ask the minister: is this what government looks like when the adults are back in charge? Merry Christmas, Senator Abetz. Honourable senators interjecting— Senator Bernardi: On a point of order, Mr President. I refer you to the rules for questions provided by previous president Hogg who said it was inappropriate for questions to contain ironic expressions, and so I would ask you to rule that question out of order. Senator Wong interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Senator Wong, I really do not assistance on the point of order. Senator Bernardi, I think today of all days we will allow some irony, which has found its way into many questions over the year. I will say, Senator Wong, and I was going to say it before Senator Bernardi's point of order that the final supplementary is really stretching the limit of being related to the primary question. I will allow the minister to answer the parts he wishes to answer.
