Mr BANDT (Melbourne) (14:23): Following that answer, my question is to the Prime Minister. Lyle Shelton from the Australian Christian Lobby has said that the push for marriage equality 'is causing unthinkable things to happen, just as unthinkable things happened in Germany in the 1930s'. Is your hold on power really so slim that you will spend over $7 million of taxpayers' money so bigots like these can spread their hate speech during a plebiscite instead of letting MPs just get on with a free vote in parliament? The SPEAKER: The Leader of the House on a point of order. Mr Pyne: Mr Speaker, the Prime Minister is not responsible for the remarks of Lyle Shelton and, therefore, that part of the question should be ruled out of order. Opposition members interjecting— The SPEAKER: Members on my left will cease interjecting. I am going to hear from the Manager of Opposition Business. Mr Burke: The question went to a specific decision of the government to spend money on the campaign, and that has to be in order. The SPEAKER: Just before I call the Prime Minister, there is no doubt that the first part of the question was not in order. The second part went to a decision to expend funds on the plebiscite. The Prime Minister can address that aspect. I caution the member for Melbourne on his language in the question. The Prime Minister has the call.
