12:30 I seek leave to make a short statement.
Leave granted.
I think it is very important that, on the issue of the Heiner inquiry, which I have been pursuing for quite some time—in fact, in a former time on the backbench I brought the Rofe report into the chamber to try to get it tabled—I express my absolute disgust that we have not seen right to go down a process of getting transparency on this issue. There remains a lady who no-one denies was raped and who is still seeking justice on this issue. Beyond all the so-called issues and other things that are dragged into this, that lady deserves justice. She wants her time to be able to explain her position. We know that she has received money—an amount, basically, to stay quiet. I think this is absolutely disgusting and I have to say on the record that for Senator Fielding, as a person who is a patron of White Balloon Day, to vote against this—
Mr President, I raise a point of order. There is a standing order that senators will not reflect or interject on a vote of the Senate. I ask you to look at that standing order.
'Reflection' means 'in an unparliamentary way'. I will allow you to continue, Senator Joyce.
I am also extremely disappointed in the position of the Australian Greens. They too have become party to trying to circumvent the process of transparency. This issue must at some point in time be brought to a position of conclusion and transparency. I believe and have said before that this, in a form, is Australia's Watergate, only this time people got away.
