I move:

That standing order 104, relating to the correction of divisions, be amended to read as follows:

104    Correction of divisions

(1)   If there is misadventure, or in case of confusion or error concerning the numbers reported (unless it can be otherwise corrected), the Senate shall proceed to another division.

(2)   A division under this standing order must be taken as early as is convenient.

Question put.

The Senate divided. [15:57]

(The PRESIDENT—Senator the Hon. JJ Hogg)

Question negatived.
