  • Motions — Dissent from Ruling of the Speaker

Description

  • <p class="speaker">Tony Burke</p>
  • <p><i>(In Division)</i> Can you just advise the House on the status of the Serjeant-at-Arms' chair&#8212;</p>
  • <p class="speaker">Bronwyn Bishop</p>
  • Mr Tony Burke (Watson, Australian Labor Party, Shadow Minister for Finance)
  • "I move:
  • That the Speaker's ruling be dissented from."
  • <p>The definition within standing orders is:</p>
  • <p> <i>area of Members&#8217; seats</i> <i> means the area of seats on the floor of the Chamber reserved for Members. It does not include seats in the advisers&#8217; box or special galleries, but does include the seat where the Serjeant-at-Arms usually sits. The expression is used in standing orders 128 and 129 (divisions).</i></p>
  • <p>The question now before the House is that the motion to suspend standing orders be agreed to.</p>
