Is the government document referred to just then the one that is listed on page 5 of today's red relating to the delay in the presentation of the report on the Australian Livestock Export Corporation? Is that the document that has just been tabled?

I am informed that it was tabled earlier by Senator Moore and it is listed for debate tomorrow afternoon.

I am sorry, Mr Acting Deputy President. You are not paid to take me through the running of Senate procedure, but what documents were just referred to? Could you identify them by where they appear on the red?

My advice is they are not listed on the red but they are listed on the dynamic red.

Thank you for your indulgence there. This is not a time for comment on the agenda of the Senate. Perhaps that is for another day.
