Mr President, congratulations on your ascension to greater office. I seek leave to move a motion to enable the Rural and Regional Affairs and Transport References Committee to meet during the sitting of the Senate today.

Leave granted.

I move:

That the Rural and Regional Affairs and Transport References Committee be authorised to hold a public meeting during the sitting of the Senate today from 3.15 pm to take evidence for the committee's inquiry into the implications of the restrictions on the use of fenthion on Australia's horticultural industry.

Question agreed to.
