Senator BOB BROWN (Tasmania—Leader of the Australian Greens) (16:01): We have not been consulted on this matter and we will not support it. If the Manager of Government Business in the Senate cares not to consult with the crossbenchers on matters like this then he can go without the change of hours coming from us. Opposition senators interjecting— Senator BOB BROWN: I notice some braying from Senator Boswell and others, who apparently have been in discussions with Senator Ludwig about this. Senator Macdonald is supporting them on this as well, but that is up to them; we do not.
