00:00 Thank you, Speaker. Just reminding people who stood in the way of cheaper medicines for millions of Australian patients. So they stood in the way five years ago and four weeks ago they voted in the other place time and time and time again. It's very clear, Mr Speaker. Those are the savings. The Leader of the Opposition.
00:19 Order. Order.
00:32 Mr Speaker, I'd like to raise a point of order under Standing Order 91E, disorderly conduct from the members of the Opposition and the members in the gallery. We have, and I'd ask that security take care of these elements because when we have had climate protesters, they have been removed.
00:50 I simply say that it is important that we are consistent in this place in how disorderly conduct is treated and that the encouragement from the Opposition for this conduct shows a great disrespect for your position and the orderly conduct of this House.
01:10 Order.
