Description
<p class="motion-notice motion-notice-notext">No motion text available</p>
- The majority voted against a [motion](http://www.openaustralia.org.au/debates/?id=2016-10-18.3.2) introduced by Leader of the Opposition [Bill Shorten](https://theyvoteforyou.org.au/people/representatives/maribyrnong/bill_shorten), which means it was unsuccessful.
- ### Motion text
- > *That so much of the [standing orders](http://www.peo.gov.au/learning/fact-sheets/standing-orders.html) be suspended as would prevent the Member for Maribyrnong from moving the following motion forthwith—That:*
- > *(1) the House notes that:*
- >> *(a) this morning, there are reports the Prime Minister will do a deal on gun laws to pass the Abbott Government's industrial relations bills; and*
- >> *(b) the Prime Minister has on at least five occasions just this morning refused to rule out trading away John Howard's gun laws to pass the Abbott Government's industrial relations bills; and*
- > *(2) therefore, the House resolves that it will never put the safety of Australians at risk by trading away John Howard's gun laws to pursue an Abbott Government attack on workers.*
