.: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The practice is that when a statement is sought from Ministry, they are given a copy of the HANSARD to see concerns of hon. Senators.

On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Before the Statement is responded to, I will refer to Standing Order No.1 where we had a practice.

That is what we did. The Table Office can confirm this. You could possibly have given somebody leave and they are not here and the Statement ...
