Depicted is the interior of the Senate Chamber, in session, showing a group of eight Conservative Senators opposite a group of three Liberal Senators. In the scene, both groups of Senators are engaged in different activities such as sleeping (some with their feet up on their desks), reading books and/or pin up magazines, blowing bubble gum etc., while one female Liberal Senator is standing up reading from a document., In the centre of the Chamber, separating the two groups, the Gentleman Usher of The Black Rod sits sound asleep, at his table, the Clerk of The Senate is busily typing the proceedings, at a desk nearby, and, in the background, a security staff member sits relaxed, near the Chamber doors, with both hands behind his head, his chair tilted back against the wall
