Yesterday I sought leave to table the book Behind the Exclusive Brethren. I gave that to opposition and government representatives overnight and I now seek leave to have the book tabled.

Is leave granted? No, leave is not granted, Senator Bob Brown.

May I ask who did not grant leave?
John Hogg (President) Share this | Link to this | Hansard source
The first voice I heard was from my left here. One side is happy; the other side is not happy. So there is no leave granted, Senator Brown.

I shall speak to the opposition and ascertain reasons.
