Title

  • Motions - Minister for Finance - Let another vote happen

Description

  • <p class="speaker">Sue Lines</p>
  • <p>The question now is that the suspension motion as moved by Senator Birmingham be agreed to.</p>
  • <p></p>
  • <p></p>
  • The majority voted against a [motion](https://www.openaustralia.org.au/senate/?id=2023-06-22.152.2) introduced by South Australian Senator [Simon Birmingham](https://theyvoteforyou.org.au/people/senate/sa/simon_birmingham) (Liberal), which means it was not successful. The motion was to suspend the usual procedural rules - known as standing orders - in order to allow Senator Birmingham to introduce another motion.
  • ### 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 give precedence to a motion of censure of the Minister for Finance, Senator Gallagher.*
