The second point of privilege was raised on October 21st by the honourable member for Kings North who complained that the honourable Minister of Agriculture had misled the House on October 8th with respect to an interview he had given some time before that date. The particulars of which interview the minister might have given were not set out in the debate on October 8th, but the member for Kings North tabled a transcript of a September 30th interview when he raised his point of privilege on October 21st.

MR. SPEAKER: Order, please. Before we begin the daily routine I'm going to provide the Speaker's Rulings on the outstanding three points of privilege.

The first point was raised on October 16th by the honourable Minister of Finance and Treasury Board who complained that the honourable Interim Leader of the NDP had misled the House in quoting from a briefing note during Question Period on October 15th. The point was raised the next sitting day, so there are no issues of timeliness, the matter having been raised at the earliest opportunity.

HON. MAUREEN MACDONALD: Mr. Speaker, I rise on a point of privilege today, and in accordance with Rule 29(2) I have given you notice of my intention to rise on this question of privilege.

Tuesday, October 21st, during Oral Questions Put by Members to Ministers, the Premier stated, ". . . I want to remind this House that in 2006 it was the New Democratic Party that voted against a national child care plan that would have dealt with this issue not only for this province but indeed the entire country."

MR. JOHN LOHR: Mr. Speaker, I rise on a point of privilege today, and in accordance with Rule 29(2), I have given you notice of my intention to rise on this question of privilege earlier today.

HON. DIANA WHALEN: Mr. Speaker, I rise on a point of privilege today. In accordance with Rule 29(2), I had given you notice of my intention to rise on this question of privilege earlier today.

HON. KEITH COLWELL: Mr. Speaker, I rise to raise a question of privilege and I am doing so at the earliest opportunity. Yesterday in the House of Assembly I was assaulted and threatened by the Minister of Economic and Rural Development and Tourism; he is also the member for Waverley-Fall River-Beaver Bank.

SPEAKER'S RULING: House of Assembly Act (Section 33) - significance (Pt. of privilege by Ms. Michele Raymond [Hansard p. 240, 04/03/13]) No prima facie point of privilege. The member has other recourse.

SPEAKER'S RULING: Fin. Min. deliberately misled the House in presenting Budget (04/13/12) (Pt. of privilege by Hon. S. McNeil [Hansard p. 31, 03/27/13]) Technically arguable case that should be considered by a committee if member chooses to make a motion.

SPEAKER'S RULING: EECD Minister's refusal to answer certain questions during Question Period and CWH on Supply (Pt. of privilege by Hon. K. Casey [Hansard p. 529, 04/09/13]) No prima facie breach of privilege.

HON. KAREN CASEY: Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I am rising in accordance with Rule 29 (1) and raising a matter of privilege at the first opportunity for which I request your consideration, and in accordance with Rule 29 (2) I have provided you with notice of my intention to raise this point of privilege prior to the meeting of the House today.
