Mr Deputy President, it is not possible to have this bill passed on Saturday or Sunday and meet the deadline, which the opposition recognises. The point I want to make is that if the view of the Senate is that we do not have support for the time management, with the Greens and the opposition indicating that they will not agree to that, I accept that that is the will of the Senate.
