Senator ROBERTS ( Queensland ) ( 17:39 ): Can the vote be recommitted, please? I made a mistake. The DEPUTY PRESIDENT: May I suggest, Senator Roberts, that, rather than a recount, you seek leave to make a short statement indicating your vote. Senator ROBERTS: Certainly. I seek leave to make a short statement. The DEPUTY PRESIDENT: Leave is granted for one minute. Senator ROBERTS: I want it noted that I oppose part (a) of the motion. The DEPUTY PRESIDENT: The question is that general business notice of motion No. 983 part (b) be agreed to.
