I believe, dear colleagues, the words in question here are "false allegations". At times, we use language in our debates which comes very close to crossing the line into unparliamentary language.
I would like, if I may, to ask all of the hon. members to cease using inflammatory language during our debates. We have seen today that one side has interpreted the matter one way, and the other side, another way. I would simply ask you not to use terms like "false", because they stir up controversy here in the House.
I do find, however, concerning the point of order, that the minister has explained what he meant to say with use of the term "false". I believe that he ought to have withdrawn the words in his explanation, and I would ask him that directly. I would ask the minister, after his explanation, whether he will withdraw the word "false", which he used here in the House?
