Title

  • Motions — Deputy Prime Minister
  • Motions - Deputy Prime Minister - Stop Deputy PM from speaking

Description

  • <p class="speaker">Tony Smith</p>
  • <p>The Manager of Opposition Business.</p>
  • <p class="speaker">Tony Burke</p>
  • The majority voted against a [motion](https://www.openaustralia.org.au/debates/?id=2017-09-11.69.2) *"that the Deputy Prime Minister be no further heard."* These motions are known as gagging motions. Since it was unsuccessful, the Deputy Prime Minister can continue to speak.
  • <p>I move:</p>
  • <p class="italic">That the member be no longer heard.</p>
  • <p class="italic">Mr Pyne interjecting&#8212;</p>
  • <p class="speaker">Tony Smith</p>
  • <p>The Leader of the House will need to resume his seat. Under the standing orders, as I said on Wednesday, I think, the matter needs to be put without debate and needs to be put immediately. The question is that the Deputy Prime Minister be no further heard.</p>
