by leave—At the request of Senator Heffernan, I move:

That business of the Senate notice of motion No. 2 standing in the name of Senator Heffernan for today, proposing a reference to the Rural Affairs and Transport References Committee, be postponed till 28 October 2010.

The government was prepared to accept business of the Senate motion No. 2 with one amendment proposed by Senator Heffernan; however, we have just recently discovered there is a subsequent amendment to the motion which we have not had time to consider. However, we would be prepared to consider this motion tomorrow.

Question agreed to.
