I seek leave to amend general business notice of motion No. 494.

Leave granted.

I move:

Paragraph (d), omit all words after "resolves that the Senate will not consider any bills within the Minister's portfolio", substitute "from the adjournment of the Senate on Thursday, 14 September 2017 until the High Court determines the question of the eligibility of Mr Joyce to sit as a member of the House of Representatives, unless the Prime Minister reallocates the Agriculture and Water Resources portfolio to another minister with clear legal authority to act".
