Description
<p class="speaker">Malcolm Roberts</p><p>I ask that general business notice of motion No. 669, relating to Indigenous deaths in custody, be taken as a formal motion.</p> <p class="speaker">Scott Ryan</p>- The majority voted against suspending 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.
- ### Motion text
- > *That so much of the standing orders be suspended as would prevent the motion being moved immediately and determined without amendment or debate.*
