Senator ALSTON (Communications, the Information Economy and the Arts) (6:44 PM) —by leave—Madam President, you have my profoundest sympathy. On our side we have very high standards. I will just give you an example of that. I was once in the middle of a squash game when the bells rang. I managed to get back to my office, get changed and be back here with 43 seconds to go—


The PRESIDENT —Order, Senator Alston! You need to seek leave to speak.


Senator ALSTON —I seek leave.

Leave not granted.

Question put:

That these bills be now read a second time.
