The SPEAKER (15:12): Earlier in the week in the Federation Chamber, the member for Grayndler raised questions about the allocation of the call during consideration in detail of the main appropriation bill, Appropriation Bill (No. 1). There have been issues raised about this matter over some time, although as a general practice it has now evolved that a question and answer format is generally used, rather than a general debate. However, there are valid issues to be raised about how best to deal with the consideration in detail of the appropriation bills. With this in mind, I have spoken to the Chair of the Standing Committee on Procedure and asked that that committee examine the way in which we deal with the consideration in detail of Appropriation Bill (No. 1) to see if we can work out a more satisfactory way that is consistent, because different deputy chairs can give the call in different ways. I think it is much better that we ask the procedure committee to have a look at it and report back to me, and then we can deal with it and discuss with the Leader of the House and with the Manager of Opposition Business what is the best way to proceed. The member for Grayndler? Mr Albanese: With your indulgence, Madam Speaker— The SPEAKER: Are you rising on a point of order, or what? Mr Albanese: I am seeking indulgence. The SPEAKER: I do not propose to debate what I have just said. Mr Albanese: I am not debating it. The SPEAKER: Then what are you doing? Mr Albanese: I am just raising the issue, as I am the person who has raised it, in terms of what the problems and issues are. The SPEAKER: There is no indulgence given. I am perfectly well aware of what problems are. I call the honourable the Minister for Agriculture.
