Mr Acting Deputy President, I agree with your ruling, of course, but my point of order is that the comment was a reflection on the chair, as well as others. Forgetting about the others—I know Senator Williams, Senator McGrath and I can withstand these barbs from people like Senator Lambie—I think it's the reflection on the chair that is the matter that should be withdrawn, and so I take the point of order that the senator should be asked to withdraw the reflection on the chair, which was the comment she made after you made a ruling and which you've asked her to withdraw.
