Mr President, I rise on a point of order. I noticed that while you were on your feet, trying to call the chamber to order, you had some trouble catching Senator Vanstone’s attention, as she was clearly not addressing the chair. You were on your feet for some five or 10 seconds, waiting until Senator Vanstone actually started to address the chair. My point of order is: could you ask the minister to address the chair.
