Senator SHERRY (Minister for Superannuation and Corporate Law) (10:36 PM) —I was going to allow others to speak first, but we have made an error for which I have to take responsibility. I am informed by our very helpful Clerk that amendment (1), which we all voted yes for in terms of supporting the intention, we actually all have to vote no to remove.

Honourable senator interjecting—You’ve had a Parry moment.


Senator SHERRY —And a Sherry moment, because I take responsibility for something that happened earlier tonight—well, not full responsibility; there was a similar type of issue. So I seek leave to put the question on amendment (1) again.

Leave granted.


The TEMPORARY CHAIRMAN —The question is that item 12 of schedule 1 stand as printed.

Question negatived.


The TEMPORARY CHAIRMAN —We will now deal with Senator Xenophon’s amendment (1) on sheet 5644.
