Senator ABETZ (Tasmania—Leader of the Government in the Senate, Minister Assisting the Prime Minister for the Public Service and Minister for Employment) (16:44): I seek leave to make a one-minute statement. Leave granted. Senator ABETZ: Very briefly, Mr President, if I may address the crossbench. The homily that we just heard is from a senator who voted time and time again to ram through 52 bills without a single word of discussion in this place, and with the support of the Greens. She is now trying to say: 'Proper process demands this.' That is hypocrisy writ large. What has normally been the case, Mr President, is that, when extra days are set aside, they are set aside for the purposes of government business, standard practice, including question time and take note of answers. I commend the amendment and the motion to the Senate. The PRESIDENT: The question is that the amendment moved by Senator Xenophon to Senator Fifield's motion be agreed to. Senator ABETZ: On a point of order, Mr President. This is Senator Xenophon's amendment. The PRESIDENT: Correct. Senator ABETZ: I do not think Labor are wanting to vote against that.
