Madam Temporary Chair, I rise on a point of order.
Senator Conroy interjecting—
There you go; there you have the minister! No wonder we are held in such low regard! He has accused the opposition of being lunatics for an amendment that I co-sponsored with the Greens, the Liberal Party, the National Party and the DLP in relation to this bill. I ask the minister to withdraw his accusing members of this chamber of being lunatics in the context of this debate.
