Thank you. Senator Brandis a few weeks ago reflected across the chamber. You heard him and commented on it the next day. He stood up and denied he had even made the statements that you heard. So this is a man that is not worthy of being protected by the chair, and you should seek to get him to withdraw and you should dismiss that absolutely irrelevant point from Senator Colbeck.
