by leave—I move:

That the Order of the day be referred to the Federatiion Chamber for debate.

Mr Speaker, I associate myself with the remarkable contributions we have just heard on the life and death of Margaret Whitlam. I think she would be very pleased, looking down, to know that this has been the parliament at its finest.

Question agreed to.
