I move:

That the Procedure Committee be authorised to move from place to place for the purposes of its inquiry into proposals to alter the structure of the Senate committee system.

In speaking to the motion, I inform the chamber that this motion arose out of discussions across the various interest groups in this chamber. As a result, I advise the chamber that as the chair of the committee I have now set down Monday, 10 July at the Commonwealth Parliamentary Offices in Sydney for the convening of this meeting to consider the referral that has been made to it this morning by the Senate. I therefore commend the motion to the Senate.

Question agreed to.
