Senator JACINTA COLLINS: Senators will be aware that we were seeking to arrange business tomorrow to deal with, amongst other things, the statement with respect to the apology for forced adoptions. It will also come as no surprise to senators that the government is determined to progress some other matters, principally the NDIS and the broadcasting and related bills. I foreshadow that I will be seeking to move a further motion separately to deal with those issues.
