  • <p>I seek leave to move a motion relating to the consideration of legislation.</p>
  • The majority voted in favour of a [motion](https://www.openaustralia.org.au/senate/?gid=2020-12-09.150.7):
  • > *The question is that the question be now put.*
  • This means that the debate on the question will end and that it will now be voted on.
  • <p>Leave not granted.</p>
  • <p>Pursuant to contingent notice standing in my name, I move:</p>

  • <p>And I move:</p>
