Senator PATRICK (South Australia) (15:41): I seek leave to make a short statement. The PRESIDENT: Leave is granted for one minute. Senator PATRICK: I will be abstaining from voting on this particular motion on the basis that there have been difficulties with the recording of proceedings today and I'm not in a position to be able to play back the events, so I'm not informed as to how to vote on this. The PRESIDENT: The question is that motion No. 835 be agreed to.
