Ooh, is that a threat? I am being threatened by the Greens. Heaven forbid! Protect me please, Mr President, the Greens are threatening me! I am so traumatised I can barely get this out, but I was trying to say to Senator Ludwig that we could get to a position where these motions listed at paragraph 6(c), which we are told are very important, may not be voted on. I am particularly interested in the Territories Law Reform Bill, which is listed at the end. The opposition will be moving amendments in relation to that particular bill but, with the way these orders stand at the moment, we may well not get to them.
