SPEAKER, MR. (THE HoN. R. S. MAHER, B.A.)', RU1.INGS, OBSERVATIONS AND OPiNIONS:

Adjournment: In an adjournment debate under S.O. 49 no extension of time is possible, 203.

If a member on the adjournment speaks of unemployment generally he is raising a matter that...could lead to general debate not referring ·specifically to his· ·own elec~ torate, and· could be· out of order· if he raises a special unemployment problem

. peculiar. to his; own electorate, he is in order,. 487. ·

Amendments: Mr. Speaker may consent to an· amendment of the form in which notice has been given of a motion, 120.

Chair: Ele.ction of Mr. Speaker, 6,. 9; presentation of Mr. Speaker to His Excellency the Governor, 10; and presentation of new members to Mr. Speaker; 26.

Mr. Speaker will brook no interruption while he is on· his feet, 13; deliberate defiance of the Chair will lead to ejection, 113; and when Mr. Speaker calls for order

ASSEMBLY, LEGISLATIVE (continued) :

SPEAKER, MR. (THE HON. R. S. MAHER, B.A.),. RULINGS, OBSERVATIONS AND OPINIONS (continued) :

he will not be ignored; he will not tolerate dispute of his ruling except by the apprppriate form of the House, 360.

Hansard: Incorporation of statements, 431, 433, 434.

lnterject.i!ons and Interruptions: Dis-orderly, 102, 113, 380, 564, 579.

When a Minister is speaking loudly into a microphone but members complain that they cannot hear him, the fault. does not lie with the Minister, 42.

A member should be heard in silence, 64, 79, 565; too much conversation in !the Chamber is disorderly, 221.

No member minds an interjection: that is appmpriate and· pertinent;. "You would not know" is completely asinine, inane and stupid, 72.

A member who enters the Chamber and at once flatly contradicts a. Minister without

. having heard his remarks is. extremely disorderly, 289.

Member for Kirribilli: Congratulations on his maiden speech, 242. · ·

Members warned': Mr. Deane, 42; Mr. Doig, 74; Mr. Lewis, 485, 486; Mr. Morris, 41; Mr. Morton, 13; Mr. Neilly, 485 ..

Ministerial Statements: When Mr. Speaker is assured that a: lengthy prepared statement by a Minister gives a d'etailed answer to a question and does not include matters of policy, it may be incorporated in Hansard, 431. Mr. Speaker determines whether a statement contains matters of policy, 433; and if a lengthy statement is incorporated in Hansard he will rule on whether it is a ministerial statement after he has read it, 434.

Objection•able and Offensive Remarks, Imputations and Aspersions: Mr. Speaker did not notice any sneering reference to a member's speech impediment and the member himself made no objection; it appeared there had been a misunderstanding by one member of <he words used by another, and the matter should rest there, 538.

"That crowd", in reference to members, 568.

Openinf? of lst Session of 40th Parliament: Commissioners' message, 18.

Parliament House: Seating in Legislative Assembly, and new building, 77.

Disturbances in the precincts, 426.

SESSION 15)62



SPEAKER, MR. (THE RON. R. s. MAHER, B.A.), RULINGS, OBSERVATIONS AND OPINIONS (contiroued):

Personal Explanat~on: This form of the House shall not become a dialogue between two disputing members; a member shall not base his personal explanation on an inaccuracy, 280; and Mr. Speaker will not enter into a debate with him, 281.

Procedure: Though the time for a member .to ·speak on his election as ·Chairman of Committees has passed, he may proceed with the leave of the House, 18.

At the opening of a session, it is essentia1 for Ministers to give notices of motions, so that the Government's business will be placed before the House. Mr: Speaker's inclination would be to be.gin the fort_y-five minutes of question t'ime after the notices have been given, and the question of a liberal interpretation of the standing orders to this end is one for his determination, 19.

The paper listing 'llotices of motions and orders of the day is distributed in both proof form and revised form, but still it is not incumbent upon the Government to follow the order of business shown in the document, 433.

Public Accounts Committee: Election of members, 432, 524.

Questions without Notice: Questions should be concise, 22, 520; and if lengthy, placed on the Questions and Answers paper, 22, 24, 72.

Mr. Speaker will hear the complete question before ruling on it, 275; when part of a question is in order and part irregular, the Minister may answer the part that is in order, 429.

When a Minister is answering a question of some importance to the community and .the .conduct of his department has been im-pugned, he is entitled to spend a considerable amount of time on his answer; he is reminded that question time lasts only 45 minutes and he should be as brief as he can, refrain from answering interjections and confine himself to the question, .274.

A member's supplementary question IS m order while he is referring to a proposed site at Westmead for a teachers' college, which was the subject of the original question, but when he is about to mention other sites, that part of his question would not be supplementary, 328.

In each of the following references, the second subject was not supplementary to the first. Kiah Bridge over the Towamba · River, on Princes Highway south of Eden: uncompleted section .ol Prince's Highway


SPEAKER, MR. (THE HoN. R. S. MAHER, B.A.), RULINGS, OBSERVATIONS AND OPINIONS (continued)·:

south of Eden, 24. Warringah Expressway resumptions: expressways awaiting construction in the Bankstown, East Hills and St. George areas, 191. Trainee teachers' allowances; workers' compensation rates of employees, 276. Request for statement by Minister for Mines on oil exploration: possibilities for Australians to purchase shares in thre_e ··named oil .exploration companies, 278.

Reading of Newspapers: Disorderly in House, 91.

Reading of Speeches: A Minister has an obligation to weigh 'his words much more carefully than an ordinary member and is in order in reading a speech, 91.

Relevance: Members must keep to the ·point. !:05. 195, 480, 562, 565.

In nominating a member for election to the office of Chairman of Committees, the mover of the ·motion may .trace some of the background of both the nominee and the position, 13, 14.

State Superannuation Board: Report, 42. Sub Judice: When a trial occurred the day

before it was mentioned in the House and ten days are allowed for the lodging of an appeal, the matter is sub judice, 196.

Temporary Chairmen of Committees: Nomination by Mr. Speaker of Mr. Crawford, Mr. McCaw, Mr. Nott, Mr. Tully and Mr. Wattison, 17.

SPECIAL ADJOURNMENT, m., 84, 523.

TEMPORARY CHAIRMAN OF COMMITTEES (L. J. TuLLY, EsQ., B.A., LL.B.), RULINGS, OBSERVATIONS AND OPINIONS: Privilege: In Committee a member may

not raise a point of privilege; he may do so only in the House, 445.

Relevance: When a member is retracing in Committee general matters that have been discussed at the second-reading stage, he should be brief, 443; and matters that are properly .the subject of a second-reading speech are out of order, 445.

TEMPORARY CHAIRMAN OF COMMITTEES (W. E. WATIISON, ESQ.), RULINGS, OBSERVATIONS AND OPINIONS: Amendment: An amendment to increase

the membership of a board from seven to eight filling the eighth place with a representative of a non-existent university, would make the clause unworkable and is out of order, 558.

Interjections and Interruptions:· A member should be heard in silence, 557,. : ·
