The short answer is that if you looked at your red, Senator Brown, you would see that government business orders of the day Nos 8 and 9 relate to the Australian Sports Anti-Doping Authority Bill 2005 and the Jurisdiction of Courts (Family Law) Bill 2005 [2006].

Question agreed to.

(a)
general business notice of motion no 387 standing in the name of Senator O’Brien relating to government accountability; and
(b)

Question agreed to.
