Thank you, and I thank the Senate for the indulgence here. I will have you refer it to the Procedure Committee. I take up your offer but, in doing so, I have to say, President, that there cannot be a circumstance in which a senator who has asked for a ruling and had a ruling made cannot dissent from that ruling. We are in a position of illogicality on the matter. I am happy for the Privileges Committee to have a look at the matter.
