At the very least, when a Senator is a Mover of a Bill or Motion that is in the Order Paper, the Senator owes the Chair an explanation and leave if they will not be there. It is the only way to show dignity to this House. I would actually suggest that if possible, the Speaker could consider giving a specific ruling on this issue of Senators sneaking out when their Bills are in the Order Paper without the permission of the Chair. view
