I move:
That standing order 18 establishing the Committee of Privileges be amended as follows with immediate effect:
(a) in paragraph (1), omit “7”, substitute “8”; and
(b) omit paragraph (3), substitute:
(3) The committee shall consist of 8 senators, 4 nominated by the Leader of the Government in the Senate, 3 nominated by the Leader of the Opposition in the Senate and 1 nominated by a minority party and independent senators.

The question is that the motion moved by Senator Milne be agreed to.
