Confused??

Question to Creamy and co from an ignorant knuckledragger!

In the text of Section 42 'disallowance of legislative instruments' that 4dogs quoted it says (my bold):
1) If:

(a) notice of a motion to disallow a legislative instrument or a provision of a legislative instrument is given in a House of the Parliament within 15 sitting days of that House after a copy of the instrument was laid before that House; and...
Now from my calculations the Senate has sat a total of twelve days since the 30th of April 2013 and the disallowance motion was placed before the 'House of the Parliament' on the 24th of June. So isn't that well within the fifteen days?? Or am I missing something??
