Senator Brown indicated that he had not been informed; he may not have been. The Greens were notified as soon as we possibly could; it was not an ambush in that sense. Then I had the courtesy to speak to Senator Ludlam about this also. So I wish to place that clearly on the record: it was not a nonconsultation; there was consultation with the Greens.
