Title

  • Motions Prime Minister
  • Motions - Prime Minister - Don't let a vote happen

Description

  • <p class="speaker">Tony Smith</p>
  • <p>The question now is that the motion moved by the honourable Leader of the Opposition be agreed to.</p>
  • The majority voted in favour of *disagreeing* with a [motion](https://www.openaustralia.org.au/debates/?id=2021-06-03.106.2) introduced by Grayndler MP and Leader of the Opposition [Anthony Albanese](https://theyvoteforyou.org.au/people/representatives/grayndler/anthony_albanese) (Labor), which means it failed. The motion was to suspend the usual procedural rules - known as [standing orders](https://peo.gov.au/understand-our-parliament/how-parliament-works/parliament-at-work/standing-orders/) - to let a vote happen.
