On the same point of order, Mr Acting Deputy Speaker, I believe on this that you should rule that all senators are obligated to conform with all the standing orders of the Senate, including of course standing order 193. I believe that whoever is presiding should be referred to by title and not by name, I would suggest, and whoever is presiding is obligated—and in this case it is you, Mr Acting Deputy President—to ensure that those standing orders are adhered to.
