Senator HANSON-YOUNG (South Australia) (15:40): I seek leave to move an amendment to motion 444. The DEPUTY PRESIDENT: Is leave granted? Senator Abetz: I invite Senator Hanson-Young to indicate her amendment prior to seeking leave. That might assist the process. Senator HANSON-YOUNG: I am seeking leave to flag the amendment. The DEPUTY PRESIDENT: Rather than having leave denied, we could do with it this way. If Senator Hanson-Young seeks leave to indicate to the chamber the nature of the amendment— Senator HANSON-YOUNG: I seek leave to be able to move the amendment. The DEPUTY PRESIDENT: Leave has been sought just to move the amendment. Is leave granted? Leave not granted. Senator HANSON-YOUNG: Pursuant to contingent notice and at the request of the Leader of the Australian Greens, Senator Bob Brown, I move: That so much of the standing orders be suspended as would prevent me from moving an amendment to the motion. The DEPUTY PRESIDENT: I am advised by the Clerk there is no contingent motion that you can act upon. Senator Hanson-Young, can I deal with Senator Ludwig, who wishes to make a short statement, and then we will come back to the matter.
