  • Motions - Member for Bowman - Stop Lilley MP from speaking

Description

  • <p class="speaker">Tony Smith</p>
  • <p>Is the motion seconded?</p>
  • <p class="speaker">Anika Wells</p>
  • <p>I second the motion. If you were really serious about doing better by Australian women then the member for Bowman would be gone! This protection racket goes on and on, and&#8212;</p>
  • <p class="speaker">Tony Smith</p>
  • <p>The member for Lilley will resume her seat.</p>
  • <p class="speaker">Peter Dutton</p>
  • <p>I move:</p>
  • <p class="italic">That the member be no longer heard.</p>
  • <p class="speaker">Tony Smith</p>
  • <p>The Leader of the House has moved the member be no further heard.</p>
  • The majority voted in favour of a [motion](https://www.openaustralia.org.au/debate/?id=2021-05-24.34.1):
  • > *That the member [Lilley MP [Anika Wells](https://theyvoteforyou.org.au/people/representatives/lilley/anika_wells) (Labor)] be no longer heard.*
  • This is known as a gagging motion and means that Ms Wells won't be able to contribute anymore to this debate.
