Title

  • Motions — Minister for Home Affairs
  • Motions - Minister for Home Affairs - Stop Mr Dreyfus from speaking

Description

  • <p class="speaker">Tony Smith</p>
  • <p>Is the motion seconded?</p>
  • The majority voted in favour of a [motion](https://www.openaustralia.org.au/debate/?id=2021-02-15.36.1):
  • > *That the Member [Isaacs MP [Mark Dreyfus](https://theyvoteforyou.org.au/people/representatives/isaacs/mark_dreyfus) (Labor)] be no longer heard.*
  • This means that Mr Dreyfus won't be able to speak any further in this debate. These motions are known as *gagging motions*.
  • <p class="speaker">Mark Dreyfus</p>
  • <p>I second the motion. Rorts, rorts and more rorts, and Peter Dutton is up to his neck in it!</p>
  • <p class="speaker">Tony Smith</p>
  • <p>The member for Isaacs will resume his seat&#8212;and I would just remind him to refer to members by their correct titles. The Leader of the House.</p>
  • <p class="speaker">Christian Porter</p>
  • <p>I move:</p>
  • <p class="italic">That the Member be no longer heard.</p>
  • <p class="speaker">Tony Smith</p>
  • <p>The question is that the member for Isaacs be no further heard.</p>
