Senator Devine has proposed an amendment to the Order of Business that there be a debate with the Minister for Children and Youth Affairs on the interim report of the commission of investigation into mother and baby homes today. Is the amendment being pressed?

Far be it for me to divide the House. I will withdraw the proposed amendment if the Leader will confirm that the Minister can come to the Chamber before the end of May to have a further debate. I thank all the other Senators. As a House, we can work together on this.

I am happy to work with the Senator to get a date for the Minister before the end of May.

Is Senator Devine happy with that?

Yes. I withdraw the amendment.
