Point of order, Mr Deputy President. Firstly, in my understanding leave has to be granted to amend the motion and then there would be a separate request for leave to defer the motion or an announcement that it would be deferred until tomorrow. Is that correct? Both cannot be taken at the same time. I am not sure if the amendment has been agreed to by the Senate.
