Noting Senator Cormann's statement in relation to the ministerial standards, I seek leave to postpone business of the Senate notice of motion No. 1, standing in my name for today, until the next sitting day.

Leave granted.

I move:

That business of the Senate notice of motion no. 1 standing in the name of Senator Patrick for today, relating to the referral of a matter to the Finance and Public Administration References Committee, be postponed until the next sitting day.

Question agreed to.

Because we don't have a hard marker at 12.45, unless anyone objects I plan to proceed through motions in a way that facilitates the business of the chamber. So I'll now go to government business of motion No. 2, standing in the name of Senator Ruston.
