Mr President, I seek to leave to move a motion in relation to the hours of sitting which will, in effect, delete from paragraph 2 the words:

… that the hours of meeting shall be 9 am to 3.30 pm.

and include the words ‘shall continue until such time as the bills listed in paragraph 6(c) are dealt with and determined.’

Leave not granted.

Question put:

That the motion (Senator Brandis’s) be agreed to.
