Senator CASH (Western Australia—Minister Assisting the Prime Minister for the Public Service, Minister for Employment and Minister for Women) (14:03): Senator Wong, as you are a former lawyer—one for the CFMEU, albeit—I would have thought that you of all people would know that an allegation is merely that: an allegation. It was an allegation that was made by the CFMEU, which was contested by Mr Hadgkiss. In relation to allegations, I don't think it would surprise— Opposition senators interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Order on my left! A point of order, Senator Macdonald? Senator Ian Macdonald: I'm sorry to interrupt the minister. Mr President, my point of order is the conduct of the Leader of the Opposition in the Senate. She asks the question and then continuously interjects and answers the question herself. I expect that from a backbencher in the Labor Party, not from the Leader of the Opposition. I ask you to call the Leader of the Opposition— The PRESIDENT: There is no point of order. Thank you, Senator Macdonald. Senator Ian Macdonald interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Order! Senator Macdonald, thank you. I will remind all senators that it is disorderly to interject, and I need to hear the question and the answer of all senators. I would ask you to desist in disrupting the chamber. Minister, you have the call. Senator CASH: As a lawyer, Senator Wong would also know that it is appropriate to recognise and not usurp the role of the courts in determining the facts of a case based on evidence.
