I seek leave to amend general business notice of motion No. 580, standing in my name for today, relating to the 2017-18 supplementary budget estimates, in the terms circulated in the chamber.

Leave granted.

I move the motion as amended:

That the Education and Employment Legislation Committee meet on Friday, 1 December 2017 to consider the 2017-18 supplementary Budget estimates, in Canberra, from 9 am to 3 pm, to further examine the Employment portfolio, in respect of the Registered Organisations Commission and the Australian Building and Construction Commission, and that the Minister for Employment (Senator Cash) appear before the committee at that time to answer questions.

Is leave granted to cancel the division and put the motion again at the request of the chamber?

Leave granted.

I will put the motion again. The question is that amended notice of motion No. 580 standing in the name of Senator Cameron be agreed to.

Senator Urquhart interjecting—

Senator Urquhart, I am allowing senators to go back to their seats, given that I received numerous requests from across the chamber to cancel that division.

Question agreed to.
