As best I can tell the legislation has now been deleted from the Senate Agenda.
See here for the current agenda.

The Senate rises no later than 8:40pm for the Winter Break.
Now we get the 'blame game' I guess, with NEHTA saying its it not their fault! Let us be clear it is, as they should have started the legislative / consultative process long before they did. Just poor project management!

This blog is totally independent, unpaid and has only three major objectives.
The first is to inform readers of news and happenings in the e-Health domain, both here in Australia and world-wide.
The second is to provide commentary on e-Health in Australia and to foster improvement where I can.
The third is to encourage discussion of the matters raised in the blog so hopefully readers can get a balanced view of what is really happening and what successes are being achieved.

Really David, poor management you say. So how come the Bill passed tonight????
I'd say it is more a case of poor armchair reporting.
I'd call it e-health 1, bloggerman Zero
Sleep well Dave!
I call you a rather rude person.
I called it as it happened - and provided the outcome as it happened. OK effort as far as I am concerned.
Were you watching the live video stream and the Senate Red to see the item disappear and then suddenly re-appear to the annoyance of many senators. Read the Hansard to see how messy it was!
David.
