We now come to a deferred vote. I remind senators that, after 4.30 pm on Thursday 19 October 2023, a division was called on the motion moved by Senator McKenzie relating to the Albanese government. I understand it suits the convenience of the Senate for the deferred vote to be held now. The question is:

That the Senate expresses its concern at the Albanese Labor Government's rank hypocrisy when it comes to its promises of being a more accountable and transparent government, as demonstrated by its failure to be honest with Australians about why it rejected the application by Qatar Airways to have more international flights, and its failure to be transparent about the use of Special Purpose Aircraft flights.
