Title
Motions — Crown Resorts- Motions - Crown Resorts - Don't let a vote happen
Description
<p class="speaker">Tony Smith</p><p>The question is that the motion moved by the Leader of the Greens be disagreed to.</p>-
- The majority voted in favour of *disagreeing* with a [motion](https://www.openaustralia.org.au/debates/?id=2021-02-15.44.1) introduced by Melbourne MP [Adam Bandt](https://theyvoteforyou.org.au/people/representatives/melbourne/adam_bandt) (Greens), which means the motion failed.
- The motion was to suspend the usual procedural rules - known as [standing orders](https://peo.gov.au/understand-our-parliament/how-parliament-works/parliament-at-work/standing-orders/) - in order to let another vote take place.
- ### Motion text
- > *That so much of the standing orders be suspended as would prevent the Member for Melbourne from moving the following motion immediately:*
- >
- > *That this House:*
- >
- >> *(1) notes the Bergin report concerning Crown's gaming operations and its findings of money laundering and criminal activity;*
- >>
- >> *(2) calls on all political parties and candidates to join the Greens and independents in refusing to accept donations from Crown; and*
- >>
- >> *(3) also calls on the Liberal, National and Labor parties to return the almost $2 million in political donations received from Crown since 2000, or to transfer an equivalent amount to a charity or support service that deals with problem gambling.*
