In discussing this procedural motion for the cut-off, I think it is very important that we acknowledge exactly what happened yesterday in this chamber. Yesterday in this chamber, Senator Evans, when an adjournment was required, walked down to see Senator Bob Brown of the Greens and handed him the motion for Senator Brown to read out. Senator Brown, on behalf of the Greens, did Labor’s bidding. That is how close the arrangement is.
