I seek leave to table a non-conforming petition of over 32,000 signatures urging Australia to stand against Israel at the International Court of Justice.

Senator McKenzie?

The precedence in the chamber is that party leaders take precedence, not that it goes one side or the other when a party leader is on their feet. I'm seeking leave to make a short statement.

I took a decision to share the call across the chamber, and Senator Faruqi is seeking leave. I understand that you want to seek leave as well. Senator Faruqi, you sought leave to table a petition. Is leave granted?

Leave granted.
