In terms of relevance and dinner breaks for temporary entrants, which I think Senator Fielding was addressing, I apologise, Senator Fielding, that you were not consulted. I sincerely apologise. Unfortunately, it is due to the nature of the day and the long hours, and I accept your concern. The best I can suggest is that I will talk to the Leader of the Government in the Senate and ensure that this will not happen again. You should have been consulted; I accept that. I am not sure of the status of other crossbenchers but I will endeavour to ensure it does not happen again.
