Madam Acting Deputy President, I rise on a point of order. I know we allow a very wide latitude, but this document is the Australian Meat and Live-stock Industry Act 1997: Livestock mortalities during exports by sea report for the period 1 January to 30 June 2011. What that has to do with the Prime Minister attending functions in Queensland I just simply cannot understand. Whilst we do allow a lot of latitude, really, Senator McLucas having a little chat about what happened in question time cannot under any circumstances be said to be anything to do with livestock mortalities during exports by sea.
