Title
Motions — Climate Change- Motions - Climate Change - Let a vote happen
Description
<p class="speaker">Slade Brockman</p><p>The question is that the motion moved by Senator Thorpe be agreed to.</p> -
- The majority voted against a [motion](https://www.openaustralia.org.au/senate/?id=2021-10-20.3.2) introduced by Victorian Senator [Lidia Thorpe](https://theyvoteforyou.org.au/people/senate/victoria/lidia_thorpe) (Greens), which means it failed. The motion was to ignore the usual parliamentary procedural 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 vote happen.
- ### Motion text
- > *That so much of the standing orders be suspended as would prevent Senator Thorpe moving a motion to provide for the consideration of a matter, namely, a motion to provide that a motion relating to approvals for new coalmines and gas projects, may be moved immediately, determined without amendment and take precedence over all other business for 30 minutes.*
