Description

  • <p class="speaker">Tony Smith</p>
  • <p>Is leave granted for the third reading to be moved immediately?</p>
  • <p>Leave not granted.</p>
  • The majority voted in favour of a [motion](http://www.openaustralia.org.au/debates/?id=2017-08-15.112.1):
  • > *That so much of [standing orders](http://www.peo.gov.au/learning/fact-sheets/standing-orders.html) be suspended as would prevent the motion for the [third reading](http://www.peo.gov.au/learning/fact-sheets/making-a-law.html) being moved without delay.*
  • A "motion for a third reading" is the last vote that needs to happen in a house of Parliament before the bill can pass that house, so it's really just a vote on whether or not to pass a bill.
  • <p class="speaker">Jane Prentice</p>
  • <p>I move:</p>
  • <p class="italic">That so much of standing orders be suspended as would prevent the motion for the third reading being moved without delay.</p>
  • <p class="speaker">Tony Smith</p>
  • <p>The question is that the motion moved by the minister be agreed to.</p>
