Mr Deputy President, I seek leave to table two documents which have been properly circulated in the chamber.

Senator Brown, leave is not granted because there is some doubt about the documents in question.

Mr Deputy President, normally it is not the government practice to deny leave to table documents but, through you, could I say to Senator Brown: I am not sure what documents you are referring to. They may have been provided to us but I do not appear to have them here. As you know, it is a courtesy to allow the whips to have them. If you have given them to us, let us know.
