Madam Acting Deputy President, I rise on a point of order. With respect to Senator Bishop suggesting that someone in Customs is to be jailed: he is to be sentenced on the 22nd of this month. I would appreciate it if the senator did not mislead the chamber. For his own benefit—I am not carping at him politically—I simply say that I would hate for him to have to come back and correct the record.
