Ms O'NEIL (Hotham) (14:35): My question is to the Prime Minister. In its budget two weeks ago, did the government account for its secret deal with Senator Pauline Hanson? The SPEAKER: The Leader of the House has the call. Mr Pyne: Mr Speaker, how can the Prime Minister answer a question about a complete hypothetical dressed up as a question about the budget? There is no question in the member Hotham's question because there is no such thing as the deal she talks about. And no-one has confirmed there's such a thing, so therefore the question is based in an entirely spurious, hypothetical manner. The SPEAKER: I will call the Manager of Opposition Business. If those sitting behind both the Leader of the House and the Manager of Opposition Business could contain their interjections, I would be able to hear both of them. They're entitled to be heard in the roles they have and I can make a judgement. Just before I call the Manager of Opposition Business, I would point out one aspect of the Leader of the House's point of order, and that is his claim about the factual accuracy of questions. I'm not in a position to judge those, otherwise we'd be suspending while I considered each question, five minutes at a time. The Manager of Opposition Business on the point of order. Mr Burke: Thanks, Mr Speaker. To the point of order: at no stage have the government disputed that this agreement exists. At no stage have they disputed that the document exists. The question goes to whether or not money has been appropriated within the budget to account for that agreement. You can't get anything, I think, more within the standing orders than that. The only agreement or document we're not allowed to ask about is a coalition agreement. If the government want to argue this one's a coalition agreement, then they're welcome to make that case. The SPEAKER: The Manager of Opposition Business— Mr Dreyfus interjecting— The SPEAKER: The member for Isaacs isn't helping. Could I just say: as the Manager of Opposition Business articulated it, that made perfect sense to me, but the question wasn't that clear. It didn't go to a policy issue. Mr Burke: Can they ask it again? The SPEAKER: Yes, I'll allow the member for Hotham to ask the question again. An honourable member interjecting— The SPEAKER: No, that's not the point I'm making. I'm quite capable of knowing the question mentioned— An honourable member interjecting— The SPEAKER: Well, you should ignore the Leader of the House on these interjections. The point I was making was the connection to the budget. The member for Hotham can repeat her question. Ms O'NEIL: Okay, I'll repeat the question. Thank you, Mr Speaker. Mr Speaker, my question is to the Prime Minister. In its budget two weeks ago, did the government account for its secret deal with Senator Pauline Hanson? The SPEAKER: No. That's out of order because it's referring to just a secret deal. It's not— Honourable members interjecting— The SPEAKER: No. I'm sorry, the member for Hotham can resume her seat. Honourable members interjecting— The SPEAKER: No. Members can cease interjecting. The member for Hotham can resume her seat. The member for Hotham is expecting me, as Speaker, to draw a connection with earlier questions. I know what she's trying to do, but I'm not going to do that. The member for Dawson.
