Senator Abetz, this highlights the difficulty—on both sides. You were on your feet, and there were people on your side who were making it very difficult for me to hear you, then there were people who came in from my right who made it equally difficult. You, like any other senator when they are on their feet in this place, are entitled to be heard, and I am going to see that that happens. Senator Abetz, you are entitled to be heard in silence, as is the minister when they are on their feet as well.
