I've heard that some say its because its against their constitutional rights to be suspended without pay. I call BS because people get suspended all the time from their jobs without pay, when there appears to be serious wrong doing.
What is really the Liberals secret agenda?

The explanation that I heard was that the senate is a judicial body and their review committee handing out discipline is equal to a court issuing a sentence. That's why the Charter breaches, right to trial etc etc arguments have been raised.
