The Greens are disappointed that the government is moving to guillotine these bills through the parliament. We are concerned that the Senate has not had enough time—a reasonable amount of time—to consider in detail the Future Made in Australia piece of legislation. We are only halfway through the second reading speeches. There will be amendments, and the government wants to ram this through. The Senate has a duty to properly consider bills before ramming them through, so we will be asking for the question to be put separately on each of these bills, because we are worried that the government wants to ram things through simply because they are not prepared to negotiate properly.
