Disreputable conduct

Mark Devenport | 17:17 UK time, Tuesday, 3 February 2009

Yesterday Basil McCrea accused Caitriona Ruane of bringing the Assembly into disrepute by her handling of the post primary transfer issue. Sinn Fein's Chief Whip Caral Ní Chuilín objected to what she regarded as unparliamentary language. But today Mr McCrea says he has been cleared by the speaker. The moral of the story is that you can accuse any MLA of being disreputable but don't imply they have misled you, unless you want to spend a day locked out of the Stormont grounds.
