Mr President, I direct your attention to standing order 197(3). It reads:

A question of order or a matter of privilege so raised suspends the consideration and decision of every other question until determined.

Senator Cormann has raised a question of order. The moment that he raised that question of order, the consideration of every other question was suspended, including Senator Ludwig’s motion.
