21st Oct 2021, 12:09 PM – Senate Documents - Climate Change; Order for the Production of Documents - Let a vote happen
Summary
EditThe majority voted in favour of a motion to suspend the usual procedural rules - known as standing orders - to let a vote take place. This means the vote can now take place.
Motion text
That so much of the standing orders be suspended as would prevent me moving a motion to provide for the consideration of a matter—namely, a motion to provide that a motion relating to the failure of the government to comply with the order for the production of documents No. 1,251—may be moved immediately and have precedence over all other business until determined and be determined without amendment or debate.
