Description

  • <p class="speaker">Slade Brockman</p>
  • <p>The question is that the motion moved by Senator Waters to suspend standing orders be agreed to.</p>
  • The majority voted against a [motion](https://www.openaustralia.org.au/senate/?id=2021-10-19.4.2) to suspend the usual parliamentary rules - known as [standing orders](https://peo.gov.au/understand-our-parliament/how-parliament-works/parliament-at-work/standing-orders/) - in order to let another motion be introduced.
  • ### Motion text
  • > *That so much of the standing orders be suspended as would prevent me from moving a motion to provide for the consideration of a matter—namely, a motion to provide that a motion relating to a target for emissions reduction be moved immediately, determined without amendment and take precedence over all other business for 30 minutes.*
