The simple answer to that is no. Tabling of Paper Mr A.P. O’GORMAN : I have a point of order, Mr Speaker. The SPEAKER : Before I take that point of order, member for Joondalup, the minister indicated that he would table some documents and I see that the documents have been presented and tabled. Is there no longer a point of order? [See paper 3785.]
