Certainly the understanding from members on this side is that right then we were voting on the motion moved by the Leader of the House, which, if carried, means that my second reading amendment will be voted on. I had made a commitment that we would vote in favour of it. When the Speaker put it, we all voted in favour of the motion of the Leader of the House. They didn't. So, if you vote yes to this, we're in favour of your motion, as we told you we would be.
