Mr President, I raise a point of order. I have left it a little while because I did not want to do this at the beginning of the session. It relates to seating arrangements in the chamber. As I understand, the Greens are now in coalition with the Labor Party, in which case I wonder why they are sitting on the opposition side of the chamber rather than on the government side of the chamber.

by leave—After the vote we have just seen in the other place, I wonder if members to my right might determine which of them are still in coalition and which of them are not.
