I move:

That, on Wednesday, 12 October 2016 the sitting of the Senate shall be suspended at 10.30 am to noon to enable senators to attend the address by His Excellency Lee Hsien Loong, Prime Minister of the Republic of Singapore.

Question agreed to.

I move:

That consideration of the business before the Senate on the following days be interrupted at approximately 5 pm, but not so as to interrupt a senator speaking, to enable senators to make their first speeches without any question before the chair, as follows:

(a) Tuesday, 11 October 2016—Senator Burston; and

(b) Wednesday, 12 October 2016—Senator Culleton.

Question agreed to.
