The question is that the regulations be disallowed.

Question agreed to.

by leave—I indicate that the government opposed the disallowance of this motion. It notes that the opposition, Senator Xenophon and the Greens supported the disallowance motion, and on that basis we have obviously not been successful in continuing with the regulation.
