Title
Motions — Queensland Nickel
- Motions - Queensland Nickel - Suspend usual rules
Description
<p class="speaker">Pauline Hanson</p>
<p>I ask that general business notice of motion No. 1388 standing in my name for today, relating to Queensland Nickel, be taken as formal.</p>
<p class="speaker">Scott Ryan</p>
- The majority voted against a [motion](https://www.openaustralia.org.au/senate/?id=2019-02-14.73.2) to suspend the usual procedural rules (known as [standing orders](https://www.peo.gov.au/learning/fact-sheets/standing-orders.html)) so that Queensland Senator [Pauline Hanson](https://theyvoteforyou.org.au/people/senate/queensland/pauline_hanson) (One Nation) can introduce her motion on Queensland Nickel, which means Senator Hanson won't be able to do so.
- In parliamentary jargon, they voted against the following motion:
- > *That so much of the standing orders be suspended as would prevent the motion being moved immediately and determined without amendment or debate.*
<p>Is there any objection to this motion being taken as formal?</p>
<p>An honourable senator: Yes.</p>
<p>There is. Senator Hanson, the motion has been denied formality.</p>
<p class="speaker">Pauline Hanson</p>
<p>In lieu of suspending standing orders, I seek leave to make a short statement.</p>
<p>Leave not granted.</p>
<p>Pursuant to contingent notice, I move:</p>
<p class="italic">That so much of the standing orders be suspended as would prevent the motion being moved immediately and determined without amendment or debate.</p>
<p class="speaker">Scott Ryan</p>
<p>Pursuant to the order adopted, that motion will now be put, without debate, immediately. The question is that so much of standing orders be suspended as would allow motion No. 1388 to be dealt with as a formal motion.</p>
