A letter has been received from Senator Lambie:

Pursuant to standing order 75, I propose that the following matter of public importance be submitted to the Senate for discussion:

"The Albanese Government has widened the trust deficit by backtracking on commitments to support small businesses and advancing legislation that damages the integrity of the political process".

Is the proposal supported?
