Mr SHORTEN (Maribyrnong—Leader of the Opposition) (14:05): My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer to the Prime Minister's repeated commitments to help struggling families. I also refer to the fact that in the last two months since the election the Prime Minister has betrayed struggling families, cutting the schoolkids' bonus, cutting jobs at the CSIRO. Half a million homes are not getting the NBN rollout. Three and a half million are getting their superannuation cut. And the government is cutting assistance to New South Wales bushfire victims. Prime Minister, why is the government betraying Australian families and not delivering— (Time expired) Mr Pyne: Madam Speaker, I rise on a point of order. Standing order 100(d)(ii) indicates that 'argument' should not be included in questions. I know that a wide definition has been permitted for questions, particularly from oppositions, over the years, but the phrase 'betray the Australian people' is clearly an argument and I put it to you that that part of the question should be ruled out of order. The SPEAKER: I think on this occasion we might give a little leniency to the Leader of the Opposition and let his question stand.
