We will put them separately. Just to clarify for senators, Senator Hanson-Young has requested—it is within her right to do so and permission has been granted in the past—to split the motion moved by Senator Joyce. Leave was denied for the amendment. We are now back to the substantive motion 740 and we will put parts (a), (b) and (c) separately. So the first question is that part (a) be agreed to. A division having been called and the bells being rung—
Order! I am going to ring the bell for four minutes rather than one minute. This was originally presumed to be a 'mickey' division. I will have the bells rung for a further four minutes.
