Summary

Edit

The majority voted against a motion introduced by South Australian Senator Simon Birmingham (Liberal), which means it failed. Standing orders are the usual procedural rules of parliament.

Motion text

That so much of standing orders be suspended as would allow me to move a motion related to the routine of business for today.

Votes Not passed by a small majority

Nobody rebelled against their party.
