¶ 01 Hon. Deputy Speaker, I rise to a Point of Order. Standing Order 92(2) permits a point of order at any time except during a division. Yesterday I was named and mocked on live feed; when I sought a point of order, I was denied the mike. Please ensure the Chair allows bona fide points of order. Thank you.
