Description
<p class="speaker">Tony Smith</p><p>The question is that the words proposed to be omitted stand part of the question. I call the member for Melbourne in continuation.</p> <p class="speaker">Adam Bandt</p>- The majority voted in favour of a [motion](https://www.openaustralia.org.au/debate/?id=2020-09-03.185.1) to speed things along and vote on the question immediately. In parliamentary jargon, they voted to *put* the question rather than continuing to debate it.
<p>[by video link] Thank you, Mr Speaker. I've concluded my speech.</p> <p class="speaker">Christian Porter</p><p>In that case, I move:</p><p class="italic">That the question be now put.</p> <p class="speaker">Tony Smith</p><p>The question is the question be put.</p>
