 The SPEAKER (15:00): I have reviewed the constituency questions from yesterday. The member for Richmond asked a broad policy question and the link between her question and her electorate and constituents was quite tenuous. I will accept the member’s question on this occasion but remind members to in future phrase their constituency questions carefully to ensure that the link between their question and their electorate is explicit. Similarly, it was not clear in the way the member for Gippsland East phrased his question yesterday whether he was seeking information from the minister or his constituents were seeking information. Again, I will accept the member’s question but ask members to be more careful when phrasing their constituency questions.
