I withdraw the word 'lie' and substitute the words 'deliberately mislead the chamber'.

The TEMPORARY CHAIRMAN: Senator Brandis, it would be unhelpful to leave it at that. Senator Brandis, you need to withdraw the word 'deliberately'.

The TEMPORARY CHAIRMAN: Thank you, Senator Brandis, for assisting the chamber.
