We'll be seeking to amend this motion in the terms as follows:
At the end of the motion, add—
, except in relation to the Joint Standing Committee on the National Disability Insurance Scheme, and that in relation to that committee, paragraph (6) be amended as follows:
(6) the committee elect a:
(a) minor group senator or independent senator as its chair; and
(b) Government member as its deputy chair who shall act as chair of the committee at any time when the chair is not present at a meeting of the committee.
