Unlike Senator Brown, and because of the sensitive nature of this issue, I am not going to object to leave being granted. Senator Brown earlier in the day tried to maintain a battle of denying leave, and I understand he has done that informally earlier as well with Senator Fierravanti-Wells. I just want to make the point that we are not going to play the silly games that Senator Brown has been playing and we will grant him leave.
