Sittings of the House
Mr Speaker—[Interruption] Those members just lack politeness; it is unbelievable.
💬 Hon Darren Hughes: You’ve only worked 1 day this week!
Well, if I have worked only 1 day this week, it is 2 days longer than Darren Hughes; that is for sure.
💬 Mr SPEAKER: It is the last day of term.
I seek leave of the House to sit on the ringing of the bell on Thursday, 10 September 2009, following an official luncheon for the general secretary of the Communist Party of Viet Nam.
💬 Mr SPEAKER: Is there any objection to that course of action being followed? There is none.
