by leave—At the request of Senator Crossin, I move:

That the Legal and Constitutional Affairs Legislation Committee be authorised to hold a public meeting during the sitting of the Senate today from 5.30 pm until 6.30 pm to take evidence for the committee’s inquiry into the Australian Capital Territory (Self-Government) Amendment (Disallowance and Amendment Power of the Commonwealth) Bill 2010 together with the amendments on sheet no. 7031 circulated by the Australian Greens.

Question agreed to.
