  • Motions - Morrison Government - Stop MP for Corio 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=2021-06-22.73.4) to stop Corio MP [Richard Marles](https://theyvoteforyou.org.au/people/representatives/corio/richard_marles) (Labor) from speaking anymore in this debate. In parliamentary jargon, they voted "*That the Member be no longer heard*." These motions are known as gagging orders.
  • <p class="speaker">Richard Marles</p>
  • <p>Seconded. Serious times demand serious people&#8212;and he behaves like a clown!</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 member be no further heard.</p>
