Well, Senator Di Natale, are you not going to speak? Is your leader not going to speak? Can we can get on with the debate; will you vote for it? We have tried twice today to get on with the debate. If the Greens are confident in their arguments, then they will put them to the Senate and we will have a vote on it. Let's get on with the debate and finish with these procedural motions. The Greens and the Labor Party have put impediments before this chamber to prevent us from debating the issue that they feel so passionate about. I urge the Senate to support Senator Fifield's motion.
