Mr Kaine: Mr Speaker, it would seem that Mr Rugendyke might have voted incorrectly. He may want to recast his vote.

MR SPEAKER: Mr Rugendyke, is it your wish to have the vote recalled?
Mr Rugendyke: Yes.
Mr Quinlan: I rise to a point of order, Mr Speaker. Is it appropriate for you to call, unsolicited, a member of this Assembly?
MR SPEAKER: No, I had to ask the person concerned whether he wished to have the vote recalled.
Mr Quinlan: I have to observe that things are getting fairly wild and woolly in here on that side.
MR SPEAKER: It is six minutes past 10. Mr Quinlan, standing order 165 reads:
In case of confusion or error concerning the numbers reported, unless the same can be otherwise corrected, the Assembly shall proceed to another vote.
Mr Quinlan: What confusion?
