Title

  • Motions — Coalition Government
  • Motions - Coalition Government - Stop MP for Corio from speaking

Description

  • <p class="speaker">Tony Smith</p>
  • <p>Is the motion seconded?</p>
  • <p class="speaker">Richard Marles</p>
  • <p>It is seconded. It is the height of indulgence: rather than fighting for Australians, they are obsessed with fighting amongst themselves&#8212;</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 question is that the Deputy Leader of the Opposition be no further heard.</p>
  • <p>The House divided. [14:45]</p>
  • <p>(The Speaker&#8212;Hon. Tony Smith)</p>
  • <p>Question agreed to.</p>
  • The majority voted in favour of a [motion](https://www.openaustralia.org.au/debate/?id=2021-06-21.80.4):
  • > *That the member [Corio MP [Richard Marles](https://theyvoteforyou.org.au/people/representatives/corio/richard_marles)] be no longer heard.*
  • This means that Mr Marles can no longer contribute to this debate. These types of motions are known as *gagging orders*.
