  • <p>The question is that the motion moved by Senator Birmingham to suspend standing orders be agreed to.</p>
  • The majority voted against a [motion](https://www.openaustralia.org.au/senate/?id=2022-09-08.4.2) introduced by South Australian Senator [Simon Birmingham](https://theyvoteforyou.org.au/people/senate/sa/simon_birmingham) (Liberal), which means it failed.
