  • Motions Carbon Pricing
  • Motions - Carbon Pricing - Against the "Carbon Tax"

Description

  • <p class="speaker">Anthony Albanese</p>
  • <p>It is extraordinary that those opposite move a motion of suspension to allow a debate and then gag the debate. It says everything about their negativity and what they are about&#8212;on a day that we have clean energy legislation&#8212;because we could get on with the business of the House that might allow the member for Wentworth to speak. We have had 120 speakers, but he has not spoken because he agrees with us. <i>(Time expired)</i></p>
  • <p>Question put:</p>
  • <p>That the motion (Mr Abbott's) be agreed to.</p>
  • <p>The House divided. [15.21]</p>
  • <p>(The Speaker&#8212;Mr Harry Jenkins)</p>
  • <p>Question negatived.</p>
  • <p class="speaker">Julia Gillard</p>
  • <p>Mr Speaker, in the absence of any questions on the nation's interest from the opposition, I ask that further questions be placed on the <i>Notice Paper</i>.</p>
  • The majority voted against a [http://www.openaustralia.org/debates/?id=2011-10-11.51.2 motion] introduced by Liberal MP [http://publicwhip-test.openaustraliafoundation.org.au/mp.php?mpn=Tony_Abbott&mpc=Warringah&house=representatives Tony Abbott], the Leader of the Opposition.
