    "content": " Madam Temporary Speaker, generally on the issue, Sen. Poghisio, Sen. Cherargei and I had a discussion with the Speaker about petitions. I think the message I got from that consultation was that as Senators in this Chamber, we must all act in good faith amongst ourselves. If a matter is so intricate with the functioning of a Senator in his county, there is nothing in the Standing Orders that says it must be brought by the Senator of that county. However, in good faith, it is important for colleagues to consult over such petitions. Good faith facilitates good relationships in the House. The Speaker at that time had organised for a session of Sen. Cherargei and Sen. Poghisio to agree before the Petition was brought to the House. I think as a matter of practice, maybe that is something that your office, as the Speaker--- We can also consult outside the debate of the Chamber, so that going forward, Members can agree on how to move forward. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
