I move:
- That the Senate:
- (a)
- notes that on 22 March 2007 Gough Whitlam becomes Australia’s longest-lived elected Prime Minister;
- (b)
- congratulates Mr Whitlam on achieving this milestone; and
- (c)
- acknowledges his outstanding contribution to Australian public life.
Question agreed to.

Mr President, would you note the Greens’ support for that motion?

Then would you note that it was unanimously supported? That is better still.
