Before I call the Acting Leader to reply, I clarify for Senator Craughwell, and I am sure the Acting Leader will bring further clarification, that the motion before the House provides for the Bill to start next Thursday. The motion does not provide for the conclusion of the Bill that day. To give further clarification from the Order Paper, a three-day deadline is allowed for the submission of amendments to the Bill rather than the current two-day deadline. It is on the Order Paper, for Senator Craughwell's information.
