Senators in the Chamber
If the Senators of your State or Territory are not present in the
Chamber while the Senate is sitting, it is likely that they are
listening to the debate in their offices or attending to their
parliamentary work elsewhere in the building.
Duty rosters are drawn up for seats occupied by the President,
Chairman of Committees, Ministers, Shadow Ministers and
Whips, so that at all times when the Senate is sitting there are
Senators 'on duty' in these positions to ensure that the business
of the Senate proceeds.
