Order! Please resume your seat, Senator Macdonald. You are correct that I will be addressing the issue of inferences, imputations and the length of preambles to questions during the break. However, I can't rule whether a question is in order until I hear the complete question. Senators are allowed to have material which they then refer to in a specific question in their preamble, in my view, under the standing orders.
