Senator BRANDIS (Queensland—Attorney-General, Vice-President of the Executive Council and Leader of the Government in the Senate) (09:34): I am going to raise a point of order. Senator Pratt cannot move that motion without leave and she has not sought leave. There was a motion agreed to by the Senate earlier in the week which, relevantly provided by paragraph 4: … The Senate requires that the Attorney-General be in the Senate at 9.30 am on Thursday 30 March 2017, so that a senator may ask the Attorney-General for an explanation in connection with his actions on this matter, and at the conclusion of the explanation any senator may move a motion to take note of explanation; or if the Attorney-General fails to provide an explanation any senator may move to take note of his failure to do so. That is the operative part of the resolution. I was here at 9.30 and no opposition senator asked me a question. I am in a position to respond to any questions that may be asked of me. Senator Pratt has now raised an issue. I have not been asked a question. The PRESIDENT: Senator Pratt did actually ask a question. She did not actually move a motion. Can we just take it now that a question has been asked of the Attorney-General. I ask the Attorney-General if he wishes to respond. Senator BRANDIS: Can I have the question again please, because I did not— Senator Wong: Seriously; the length this bloke goes to not answer question. It is amazing! The PRESIDENT: Order! Senator Pratt, would you please repeat the question.
