I find it a bit odd that at this late stage in the game the member is trying to tell the Speaker how to rule on the question of privilege that was raised. We know the Speaker has spent a lot of time and energy determining whether or not the points raised constitute a prima facie case of privilege.</p>\n<p>I am not sure what we are seeing here, unless it is an attempt to deflect attention away from the very serious business that the House wants to get down to.</p>",
