I won't hold up the chamber for very long. I just want to indicate that the Australian Greens are comfortable with the amendments that have been proposed to the substantive motion by the government, and we also accept the arguments that have just been put by Senator Ruston in relation to the amendment, which I understand will be an amendment to the government's amendment. I would invite you to clarify that, President, when you're able, in terms of the process that the Senate will go through. I'm just flagging that, on the assumption that an amended motion will be put to the Senate, we will be asking that certain questions be put separately, because we intend to vote a different way on different matters in that motion. That's just a heads-up for the chamber, and for you, President.
