With the leave of the Senate—and I understand it's been agreed between the whips—I am going to recommit government business matter No. 1, the matter listing the bills exempt from the cut-off order. Senator Siewert has a request.
Rachel Siewert WA, Australian Greens
I request that the question on the Online Safety Bill 2021 and the Online Safety (Transitional Provisions and Consequential Amendments) Bill 2021 be put separately.
Scott Ryan President
That motion was amended in terms circulated in the chamber. So the question is that the motion, as amended, and not including those two bills just mentioned by Senator Siewert, be agreed to.
Question agreed to.
The question now is to include in that motion and in that list of business bills exempt the Online Safety Bill 2021 and the Online Safety (Transitional Provisions and Consequential Amendments) Bill 2021.
Question agreed to.

by leave—Mr President, under the standing orders I ask that the opposition of the Greens to the motion be recorded.
Scott Ryan President
The opposition of the Greens to those two bills being exempt from the cut-off order is noted, but the motion is carried in the terms as circulated and amended in the chamber.
