Description

  • <p class="speaker">Milton Dick</p>
  • <p>Is leave granted for the third reading to be moved immediately?</p>
  • <p class="speaker">Barnaby Joyce</p>
  • <p>Leave is granted.</p>
  • <p>Honourable members interjecting &#8212;</p>
  • <p class="speaker">Angie Bell</p>
  • <p>Leave is not granted.</p>
  • <p class="speaker">Milton Dick</p>
  • <p>We're going to recommit this. We're going to go through the process one by one to get it right. Is leave granted for the third reading to be moved immediately?</p>
  • <p class="speaker">Barnaby Joyce</p>
  • <p>No, it's not.</p>
  • <p class="speaker">Tony Burke</p>
  • <p>From the contingency motion, I move:</p>
  • <p class="italic">That so much of standing orders be suspended as would prevent the motion for the third reading being moved without delay.</p>
  • <p class="speaker">Milton Dick</p>
  • <p>I will explain to the House what the Leader of the House has moved. On page 6 of today's Notice Paper, it says:</p>
  • <p class="italic">Contingent on the second reading of a bill being agreed to and the Speaker having announced any message from the Governor General under standing order 147: Minister to move&#8212;That so much of the standing orders be suspended as would prevent the motion for the third reading being moved without delay.</p>
  • <p>The question is the motion moved by the Leader of the House be agreed to.</p>
  • <p></p>
  • <p></p>
  • The majority voted in favour of a motion:
  • > *That so much of standing orders be suspended as would prevent the motion for the third reading being moved without delay.*
  • Standing orders are the usual procedural rules of parliament.
  • This means the House will now vote right away on [whether to read the bill for a third time](https://theyvoteforyou.org.au/divisions/representatives/2024-11-28/12) (parliamentary jargon for agreeing with the main idea of the bill).
