I give notice, at the giving of notices on the next day of sitting, to withdraw business of the Senate notice of motion No. 2 standing in my name for six sitting days after today for the disallowance of the Migration Amendment (Bridging Visas—Code of Behaviour) Regulation 2013. I seek leave to make a short statement.

Leave granted.

On 13 May 2014, the committee gave notice to disallow this instrument whilst it sought further information on various issues from the Minister for Immigration and Border Protection. The committee has received a satisfactory response to its concerns from the minister. The committee's concluding remarks are documented in the delegated legislation monitor No. 7 of 2014. Accordingly, the committee will seek to withdraw the notice of motion to disallow the instrument.
