I appreciate your pointing out that Senator Brandis is out of order, Mr Acting Deputy President, but I want to put this on the record because I keep hearing this complete untruth, this complete misleading of the Australian public: I was unavailable for one day only; Senator Ian Macdonald was unavailable for another two days. Let us be clear: there was no need for this committee to be rammed through in two days, no need whatsoever.
