We've complied with all orders referred to in the motion to the greatest extent possible. This is a matter that is being actively negotiated and discussed with states and territories and the Commonwealth. This has been explained to Senator Steele-John. The government does not believe it's reasonable to divert time from the work of the Senate by requiring ministerial attendance, as would be the case if this motion passed. It does require ministerial attendance every Monday of every sitting week, as I understand. It would be highly unusual for that to be supported by this place. Ministers are available in question time every sitting day to provide an explanation of government action in connection with this matter, and there are a number of other ways in which we continue to discuss matters relating to the NDIS. The government will not be supporting this motion.</p> <p class="speaker">Sue Lines</p><p>The question is that general business notice of motion No. 342 standing in the name of Senator Steele-John be agreed to.</p><p></p> -
