I will just reiterate again—and I encourage senators to read standing order 66(3) in relation to the taking of formal motions. In short, it says:

A formal motion shall be put and determined without amendment or debate.

I have just got clarification from the Clerk. Because we have actually discovered the motion, which has been postponed until tomorrow, can we take it that in that motion the matter be taken at formal business again for the next day of sitting? That way, we are definitely going to rediscover it and deal with it in the same appropriate manner. Thank you.
