I advise senators that I have had a request from the media to take photographs of divisions in the remaining hours and days of this sitting of the Senate. I have raised this before with the Senate and I have indicated that, if the concurrence of the Senate is granted, I would indicate that photographs must only be broad shots of the chamber, that individual senators or groups of senators not be the focus of any particular shot and that the media rules or otherwise be complied with at all times. If there is not concurrence, I will advise the media accordingly. Is there concurrence for shots of divisions to be taken?
