- The majority voted in favour of a [motion](https://www.openaustralia.org.au/debate/?id=2021-06-24.5.4):
- > *That the Member be no longer heard.*
- The Member in this case was Griffith MP [Terri Butler](https://theyvoteforyou.org.au/people/representatives/griffith/terri_butler) (Labor). This means that she can no longer contribute to this debate.
- These types of motions are known as *gagging orders*.
