On a point of order, Mr Acting Deputy President, I have not yet seen the motion. I would value it if those terms of reference were given to me as soon as possible. I cannot deal with something I have not seen.

I understand that, Senator Brown. I am sure that will be expedited. It is for tomorrow, as I think you would be aware.
