The Hon. the Speaker pro tempore: Is it your pleasure, honourable senators, to adopt the motion?

The Hon. the Speaker pro tempore: Are senators ready for the question?

The Hon. the Speaker pro tempore: I am sorry, Senator Pate, but you will have 11 minutes upon our return.

Honourable senators, it is now six o’clock. Pursuant to rule 3-3(1), I am obliged to leave the chair until eight o’clock, unless it is your wish, honourable senators, not to see the clock.

Is it agreed not to see the clock?
