I am not going to speak to the amendment but I want to put on the record that Senator Higgins and I have sat through all the sessions of this debate and we did not level a comment about filibustering at the Minister. He said he was not going to repeat what had already been said but that was not what we were asking of him. If anything, he has spent hours upon hours replying to filibustering while Senator Higgins and I have sat patiently for days waiting to speak on our amendments. We were only seeking to engage constructively on our amendments now that the filibustering king and his pals are out of the Chamber for a little while.
