Description
<p class="speaker">Jordon Steele-John</p>
<p>I move:</p>
-
- The majority voted against a [motion](https://www.openaustralia.org.au/senate/?id=2024-02-27.147.1) introduced by West Australian Senator [Jordon Steele-John](https://theyvoteforyou.org.au/people/senate/wa/jordon_steele-john) (Greens), which means it failed.
- ### Motion text

<p>I seek leave to make a short statement.</p>

<p>Leave is granted for one minute.</p>
<p class="speaker">Jonathon Duniam</p>
<p>The coalition is unable to support this motion today. We have indicated to the Greens that our preference is that the matter be postponed until the March sittings to allow further discussions to take place between Senator Steele-John, the mover of this motion, and the President's office, as well as the Department of Parliamentary Services. Given the motion has not been postponed, we will have to oppose it today; however, we of course reserve the right to support a similar motion if one is brought forward to the chamber in March and the issue hasn't been resolved.</p>
<p class="speaker">Sue Lines</p>
<p>The question is that general business notice of motion No. 477 standing in the name of Senator Steele-John be agreed to.</p>
