Summary

Edit

The majority voted against a motion introduced by NSW Senator Mehreen Faruqi (Greens), which means it failed. Standing orders are the usual procedural rules of parliament.

Motion text

That so much of the standing orders be suspended as would prevent Senator Waters moving a motion to provide for the consideration of a matter, namely a motion to give precedence to a motion relating to student protest encampments.

Votes Not passed by a modest majority

Nobody rebelled against their party.
