On a point of order, once again today one of the five Priority Questions cannot be taken because we have run out of time. It was my understanding when we brought Priority Questions to the beginning of Question Time last session that the whole idea was that the spokesperson for every party would have at least one question answered on the floor of the House. I wish to give notice that I intend to raise this matter with the Whips and with the Committee on Procedure and Privileges.

The Chair does his best to dispose of all the questions on priority and continuously advises the House of the importance of co-operation towards that end but sometimes he does not receive the co-operation desired. I have sympathy with the Deputy.
