Summary

Edit

The majority voted in favour of a motion to suspend the usual procedural rules - known as standing orders - which means the requested motion could be moved.

Motion text

That so much of the standing orders be suspended as would prevent Senator Cormann moving a motion to provide for the consideration of a matter, namely, a motion to provide that a motion relating to the consideration of the Fair Work (Registered Organisations) Amendment (Ensuring Integrity) Bill 2019 may be moved immediately and determined without amendment or debate.

Votes Passed by a small majority
