That's correct, Senator Ruston. I spoke to Senator Roberts this morning. I believe leave was sought from the government and the government was happy to give leave. I'm not sure what Senator Roberts wants to do at this point. If he wants to move back to his spot, he can make a contribution.

I do remind all senators in this place that if you are seeking the call or you are unsure of where we are up to, stand and the chair will ask you what it is you are seeking. That is my best advice—seek the call. Senator Roberts? I'm assuming we're giving leave to hear from Senator Roberts?

Leave granted.
