  • Motions - Covid-19: Aged Care - Stop Mr Burke from speaking

Description

  • <p class="speaker">Andrew Wallace</p>
  • <p>SPEAKER (): The Manager of Opposition Business.</p>
  • <p class="speaker">Tony Burke</p>
  • <p>Thank you, Mr Speaker. The government is in chaos, aged care is in chaos because the people opposite are not doing their job.</p>
  • <p>Opposition members: Hear, hear!</p>
  • <p>An opposition member: Keep going.</p>
  • <p>Keep going? He does not know how to do his job, the one opposite. The Prime Minister goes missing every time there's a crisis.</p>
  • <p class="speaker">Andrew Wallace</p>
  • <p>Order. The Manager of Opposition Business will withdraw that comment. The Manager of Opposition Business, was that a reflection of the chair that you just made?</p>
  • <p class="speaker">Tony Burke</p>
  • <p>No, I pointed to the Prime Minister. I think you're doing your job. I don't think the Leader of the House is. I don't think the Prime Minister is. And certainly the minister for aged care isn't.</p>
  • <p class="speaker">Andrew Wallace</p>
  • <p>When the Manager of Opposition Business says 'your', he's reflecting on the chair.</p>
  • <p class="speaker">Tony Burke</p>
  • <p>I assure you, Mr Speaker, if you go back and check the video, you'll see I was pointing squarely to the person who got the last procedure wrong.</p>
  • <p class="speaker">Andrew Wallace</p>
  • <p>Alright. The Manager of Opposition Business will resume his seat. The Leader of the House.</p>
  • <p class="speaker">Peter Dutton</p>
  • <p>I move:</p>
  • <p class="italic">That the member be no longer heard.</p>
  • <p class="speaker">Andrew Wallace</p>
  • <p>The question is that the member be no further heard.</p>
  • <p></p>
