DOCUMENTS
Senator McALLISTER (New South Wales—Minister for the National Disability Insurance Scheme) (18:13): by leave—I move: Omit all words after "That", substitute: (a) orders for the production of documents is one of the Senate's most serious powers, and should be used when other processes have been exhausted rather than for fishing expeditions; and (b) senators seeking to order the production of documents should consider paragraph (a) and refine their orders accordingly.
The PRESIDENT: The question is that the amendment as moved by Senator McAllister to Senator Faruqi's 354 general business motion be agreed to.
