Mr President, I seek leave to make a short personal explanation with respect to your statement concerning the Appropriations and Staffing Committee.

Leave granted.

I thank the President and the Senate. I just wish to make it clear that I sat and considered the material before me on the Appropriations and Staffing Committee on my own account and not as a representative of the Australian Democrats party room. I did not convey their views at that meeting.
