During the general business debate earlier today, temporary chairs of committees undertook to refer to me two rulings which they made. Senator Moore ruled on remarks made by Senator Cash on which Senator Bob Brown took a point of order while Senator Bishop ruled on the relevance of the amendment moved by Senator Milne. I have examined the Hansard and the amendment, and in both cases I endorse the rulings that were made.
