Parliament's Speaker will meet MPs across the House today, as he cracks down on behaviour. 

Gerry Brownlee's spoken about Te Pati Māori's newest MP,  Oriini Kaipara, going over-time in her maiden speech on Thursday, and joining a haka that started in the public gallery. 

He now says he'll convene Parliament's Business Committee to discuss dress standards, attendance records, leave, and the allocation of questions. 

Newstalk ZB senior political correspondent Barry Soper says last week's rule-breaking from Oriini Kaipara was the straw that broke the camel's back.
