Honourable senators, with leave of the Senate and notwithstanding rule 5-5(k), I move:

That order number 6 under the rubric Reports of Committees — Other, under Other Business, be brought forward and called at the end of Government Business today;

That, notwithstanding the order adopted by the Senate on June 4, 2025, today’s sitting continue beyond 4 p.m., if needed, until the earlier of the end of proceedings today on the second report of the Standing Committee on Audit and Oversight or the time provided for in the Rules; and

That committees of the Senate scheduled to meet today be authorized to meet after 4 p.m., even though the Senate may then be sitting, with rule 12-18(1) being suspended in relation thereto.

The Hon. the Speaker: Is leave granted, honourable senators?

Hon. Senators: Agreed.
