Senator Conroy, you have spoken. In relation to your matter, Senator Conroy, where you mention matters of the last sitting session, that is irrelevant and has nothing to do with this particular point of order. So I will dismiss that out of hand. The matter that Senator Colbeck has raised has been dealt with and there is no further action required there. What I heard from what Senator Brandis said—and I take what you are saying about context, Senator Wong and Senator Conroy—about him being an unhelpful witness—and I am not saying they were the exact words—I have discussed this matter with the Clerk in the moments I have had. We cannot find anything that is unparliamentary in that.
