Description
<p class="speaker">Mathias Cormann</p>
<p>I seek leave to move a motion to provide for the consideration of legislation today.</p>
<p class="italic">Senator Wong interjecting—</p>
- The majority voted in favour of a [motion](https://www.openaustralia.org.au/senate/?gid=2019-12-05.229.9) introduced by WA Senator [Mathias Cormann](https://theyvoteforyou.org.au/people/senate/wa/mathias_cormann) (Liberal) to speed things along by voting on the question immediately. In parliamentary jargon, they voted "to put the question".
<p>There's no secret deal.</p>
<p>Leave not granted.</p>
<p>Who has denied leave?</p>
<p class="speaker">Scott Ryan</p>
<p>Senator Patrick is indicating he denies leave.</p>
<p class="speaker">Mathias Cormann</p>
<p>Pursuant to contingent notice standing in my name, I move:</p>
<p class="italic">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 for a motion relating to consideration of legislation, may be moved immediately and determined without amendment or debate.</p>
<p>And I move:</p>
<p class="italic">That the motion be now put.</p>
<p class="speaker">Scott Ryan</p>
<p>The question is that question be put.</p>
