AnswerView source ↗
As I said, I simply relayed
information given to me on several high schools —
Mr
W.J. Johnston : You are wrong—wrong, wrong, wrong!
Mr
C.J. BARNETT : Let us find out.
Suspension of Member
The
SPEAKER : Member for Cannington, you have now been called three times
and now I am going to read to you standing order 48 —
A member whose conduct has made it
necessary for the Speaker to formally call that member to order more than three
times in the course of one sitting for a significant breach of the rules may,
by order and at the discretion of the Speaker, be suspended from the service of
the Assembly until the adjournment of that sitting.
I ask the member for Cannington to
please leave the chamber.

chamber.]

Mr
C.J. BARNETT : As I said, the information on several schools that I relayed,
I think during debate on a matter of public interest motion, was information
given to me. I simply repeated it in this place in good faith. If that
information is inaccurate—I do not know whether it is—I will
correct the record.
