Madam Speaker: I have a ruling for the House.
During Question Period on March 26, 1998, the honourable First Minister (Mr. Filmon) rose on a point of order respecting words spoken by the honourable member for Osborne (Ms. McGifford). The point of order disputed what the member for Osborne had stated in posing a question. The member said ". . . since the Premier seems unwilling to listen to us, I wonder if he will listen to consumers . . ." In making the case for his point of order, the Premier stated "at no time did I say I was unwilling to listen to the member for Osborne."
In reading the Hansard record, it is clear to me that this is a dispute between two members as to allegations of facts. The honourable First Minister did not have a point of order.
