The amendment was read out. It was reasonably lengthy, but I think people got the gist of it.

Senator Rice interjecting—

We need it in writing, Senator Rice. Do you have that in writing there? We just need it in writing; it does not have to be circulated. We have the amendment. Does anyone wish for the amendment to be read again? No? In that case, I will put the amendment. The question is that the amendment moved by Senator Rice be agreed to.

Question negatived.

The question now is that the motion moved by Senator Xenophon be agreed to.
