by leave—I move:

That the government business order of the day no. 12 (Migration Amendment (Abolishing Detention Debt) Bill 2009) be discharged from the Notice Paper.

Bob Brown

Bob Brown Tasmania, Australian Greens

by leave—The Greens will not be supporting that motion. We believe that this piece of legislation should be dealt with and should be kept on the Notice Paper.

Joe Ludwig

Joe Ludwig Queensland, Australian Labor Party, Manager of Government Business in the Senate

by leave—It is coming over from the House of Representatives today, and therefore I can discharge this one. It will then come from the House of Representatives, and we will then deal with it, or at least it will then come back onto the Notice Paper.

Question agreed to.
