Architects (Amendment) Bill: It having been moved that the Committee disagree to a.n amendment made by the Legisla­tive Council provicli11g that appeals shoulcl lie to the Supreme Court instead of to a court of petty sessions or a District Court, the Minister in charge of the measure submitted that the Leader of the Opposition, in addressing himself to the motion, was out of order i1i referring to the altemative courts to which· an appeal might lie, as in doing so he was discus­sing a p1·oblem a.lready decicled by the Committee during the current session. The Chairman ruled that it was not in order to contradict a principle already agreed to during the current session, but that would not occur if the motion were carried, as the position would then stand as it wns when the bill was sent to the Leg-islative Council, 2315·16.

'SPEAKER, 'MR. (THE "HoN. R., ·w. D. ·;·WEAVER),: RULINGS ;;\ND OPINIONS (con­: Jtim,ued) :

not ciNumvent the ruling of the Chair by ··endeavouring later , to ·submit it

·orally, 337. The Minister ·for Education brings

interjections upon himself by deliber­. ately disregarding the statement of the

'·'bon. member for • Botany who, having asked a question of the Minister, is entitled to a reply, 341.

·.An hon. ·member ·may ask a question . • if' he ·seeks information, but, unless he

can vouch for itsfaCCUI'acy;·-he -may ·not ·quote a· newspaper· as· his authority· for_

, the•matter to1 which he directs attention, 423, 522.

An ·bon. ·member is ·not entitled to ·preface a· question· by stating facts, 426.

·When a • question is asked in ·the House it becomes the property of the -House, and bon. members other than the one. who asks a question. are entitled tv know the --Minister's -reply. It has be· come the practice of. some Ministers, upon being asked a question, to promise

-to fumish- a reply personally to the bon. member who asl<ed it. · This c1·eates an hiatus in the journals of' the ··House, which- contain a record of the question, but no answer. ·It also denies to hon. membe1·s .. generally 'an opportunity to

--·learn· tl1e. contents of· the·· reply .. ;Minis­ters m·e · asked, therefo1·e, to be '~ood

. . enough to furnish through the House itself their answers to questions,. 448.

The length of the· answer given by a Minister to a question raises ·no issue that requires a ruling by Mr. Speake1·. Nor can the Minister's answer he re­stricted because of the fact that the debate on the Budget is proceeding, a circumstance that affords the Minister an opportunity to address himself to such a subject ·during the course of that

·debate, 720. · Unem.ployed Dclegat·iun: The allef(ation that - access to the precincts of the House had been denied delegates from an unemployed organisation who wished to present petitions -to their parliamen­tary representatives, wilL receive con­sideration, q., 79.
