14th Aug 2017, 10:45 AM – Senate Business - Consideration of Legislation - Let another motion be moved
Summary
EditThe majority voted against a motion introduced by Victorian Senator Richard Di Natale (Greens), which means it failed.
Motion text
That so much of the standing orders be suspended as would prevent Senator Di Natale moving a motion to provide that the Defence Legislation Amendment (Parliamentary Approval of Overseas Service) Bill 2015 be called on immediately and have precedence over all government business until determined.
Standing orders are the usual procedural rules of parliament.
Votes Not passed by a modest majority
