Mr SHORTEN (Maribyrnong—Leader of the Opposition) (14:00): My question is to the Prime Minister. Given that it has taken only two days for the Liberal cabinet to start leaking again, doesn't this just prove that, even though there is a new Liberal leader, it is the same policies, the same chaos and the same division? The SPEAKER: The Leader of the House on a point of order. Mr Champion interjecting— The SPEAKER: The member for Wakefield will cease interjecting. Opposition members interjecting— The SPEAKER: Members on my left will cease interjecting. The Leader of the House. Mr Pyne: Mr Speaker, I rise on a point of order. The question is based on an argument, an assertion and an inference, none of which are within the standing orders. There is no part of the question, therefore, that can stand. The Leading of the Opposition might try and reframe it, but he cannot begin his question with a false assertion and then base the question on that false assertion. Ms Claydon interjecting— Mr Champion interjecting— The SPEAKER: The member for Newcastle will cease interjecting, as will the member for Wakefield. Before I call the member for Watson, I will make the point that the Speaker cannot vouch for the accuracy of questions—that has always been the case—and cannot make a judgement on that. I now call the Manager of Opposition Business. Mr Burke: Mr Speaker, I raise a point of order. On two parts of the question: firstly, asking about cabinet leaks is commonplace—although rare during the first week of a Prime Minister, I accept that. The SPEAKER: The member for Watson will not give a commentary. Mr Burke: The second issue is that the question also goes to government policies and it also goes to whether or not the policies have changed, which has to be in order. Mr Fitzgibbon interjecting— The SPEAKER: The member for Hunter is delaying me making a ruling. The aspect of the question that goes to the cabinet is within order, and I call the Prime Minister.
