Senator WANG (Western Australia—Palmer United Party Whip in the Senate) (17:07): I move: That the question be now put. Senator O'Sullivan: You are going to gag it! What an inappropriate abuse. Government senators interjecting— The ACTING DEPUTY PRESIDENT ( Senator Bernardi ): Order! The question is that the motion be now put. Senator Heffernan: Acting Deputy President, I rise to seek clarification. Could I just clarify this, for my dear mind: given what this is all about is buying your way through government, is the senator who proposes the gag still on the payroll of the company behind all of this? The ACTING DEPUTY PRESIDENT: Senator Heffernan, that is not a point of order. Resume your seat. Under the standing orders, I am required to put the motion. Senator Milne: Acting Deputy President, I rise to seek clarification. Is the question you are now putting to Senator Abetz's amendment? And then the subsequent motion? The ACTING DEPUTY PRESIDENT: Indeed, that is a very fine question. The question is in regard to Senator Abetz's amendment and then we will deal with the substantive motion. The question is that the motion be now put.
