Before I proceed with Senator Mullen's Commencement matter, I note that it deals with a sensitive subject matter which has the potential to affect adversely the reputations of individuals. I remind all present of the long-standing rule that Members should not comment on, criticise or make charges against a person outside the House either by name or in such a manner as to make them identifiable. I am sure Senator Mullen will be able to address the concerns he has raised adequately within the bounds of that rule. I have every confidence in the Senator. He has the floor.
