On a point of order, Mr President. I draw the Senate's attention to standing order 194, which says:
(1) A senator shall not digress from the subject matter of any question under discussion, or anticipate the discussion of any subject which appears on the Notice Paper.
My point of order, Mr President, is that Senator Wong is clearly anticipating a discussion on something that is on the Notice Paper for discussion later today. She is suggesting that different senators may vote a particular way, and in so doing I think she breaches the provisions of standing order 194.
