Mr Deputy President, Senator Cameron has just reflected upon Senator Smith. His interjection was plainly audible to those of us on this side of the chamber. He said, 'You've mislead the Governor-General.' There could be no more serious allegation against any member of parliament than that they misled the Governor-General. With respect, Mr Acting Deputy President, you should insist that Senator Cameron withdraw without any qualification.
