Mr RONALDSON (10:59 PM) —Very briefly, under the Rural Communities Program this afternoon the Stawell Gymnastic Club Inc. received the sum of $3,000—

Mr Fitzgibbon —Mr Speaker, I raise a point of order. I understood that, if not provided for in the standing orders, certainly it is convention in this place that a speaker does not seek the call twice whenever there is a member on the other side seeking the call.

Mr SPEAKER —The member for Hunter does make a valid point of order and he is right that I in fact looked to my right. I was in error. I apologise to him. It is, however, now 11 p.m., and so I will recognise the member for Hunter tomorrow evening if there is a matter he wishes to raise.
