Hon GERRY BROWNLEE (National—Ilam): I think it's no secret that from all quarters in the House there has been a concern for a long time that the financial review debates and even the Estimates debates become somewhat perfunctory, a bit of a "knock 'em over, drag 'em out" type of fare, all inside the space of five minutes, designed to get a Minister into a position where they are so concerned about the time that they don't bother to answer questions, and therefore we see just a utilisation of the House's time to no good purpose at all. The Standing Orders Committee had considered this matter prior to the events that have transpired over the last five weeks, but I think it is timely that we make the change today in time, right in front of the review debate that we will have shortly.
