Towards the end of question time on Tuesday I called Senator Henderson to order. I remind senators that Senate question time on Tuesday was particularly disorderly. This is evidenced on the record, as I called the Senate to order over 50 times. I called Senator Henderson to order a number of times and, on the last call, Senator Henderson informed me that she had not interjected. I have reviewed the tape and, as many of you know, the tape doesn't show all interjections and the interjections are also not audible. I have taken Senator Henderson's assertion on face value, and I apologise for indicating that it was her voice.
