SenateThursday 30 October 2025

BUSINESS

Senator GALLAGHER (Australian Capital Territory—Minister for Finance, Minister for the Public Service, Minister for Women, Minister for Government Services and Manager of Government Business in the Senate) (16:57): I seek leave to move a motion that the Senate does not adjourn until the Leader of the Government in the Senate asks that further questions be placed on notice.

Leave not granted. The PRESIDENT: I'm going to give the call to Senator Henderson. Honourable senators interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Order across the chamber!

I've got Senator Hanson-Young on her feet. I remind senators that I said at question 11 there would be silence. I remind senators of the motion we passed earlier in the week about respect.

I don't mind robust debate. That is what we are here for, but it will be respectful, and that includes not interjecting and not interjecting across the chamber. When I ask for order, you need to come to order.
