Description
The majority voted against a [http://www.openaustralia.org/senate/?gid=2010-03-10.23.1 motion] introduced by Liberal Senator [http://publicwhip-rails.openaustraliafoundation.org.au/mp.php?mpn=Nick_Minchin&mpc=Senate&house=senate Nick Minchin], which was:
''That so much of the [http://www.peo.gov.au/learning/fact-sheets/standing-orders.html standing orders] be suspended as would prevent me moving that further consideration of the bill be made an order of the day for five sitting days after the government response to the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Broadband_Network National Broadband Network] Implementation Study is laid on the table.''
