Mr COSTELLO (Treasurer) (3:14 PM) —Mr Speaker, I wish to make a personal explanation.


The SPEAKER —Does the honourable member claim to have been misrepresented?


Mr COSTELLO —Yes, I do, by that personal explanation.


The SPEAKER —Please proceed.

The SPEAKER —Order! The Treasurer will resume his seat and the Leader of the Opposition will resume his seat. That was not a personal explanation.
