Description
<p class="speaker">Tony Smith</p>
<p>Is the motion seconded?</p>
<p class="speaker">Tony Burke</p>
- The majority voted in favour of a [motion](https://www.openaustralia.org.au/debate/?id=2020-06-15.116.1) to stop Watson MP [Tony Burke](https://theyvoteforyou.org.au/people/representatives/watson/tony_burke) (Labor) from speaking, which means he can no longer contribute to this debate. These motions are known as *gagging orders*.
<p>I second the motion. They're using the pandemic as an excuse to cut your mail delivery in half.</p>
<p class="speaker">Tony Smith</p>
<p>The Manager of Opposition Business will resume his seat. The Leader of the House?</p>
<p class="speaker">Christian Porter</p>
<p>I move:</p>
<p class="italic">That the member be no longer heard.</p>
<p class="speaker">Tony Smith</p>
<p>The Leader of the House has moved that the Manager of Opposition Business be no further heard.</p>
