Suspension of Standing and Sessional Orders

Thursday, 19 March 2009 House of Representatives

Peter Dutton

Peter Dutton Dickson, Liberal Party, Shadow Minister for Health and Ageing

9:01 am

I move:

That so much of the standing and sessional orders be suspended as would prevent the member for Dickson moving immediately—That the Minister for Health and Ageing:

(1)
introduce legislation to validate the collection of additional excise on premixed ready to drink alcoholic beverages; and
(2)
include in that legislation a provision to quarantine the funds for measures to address binge drinking.

This government’s action is shameful in allowing this money to be returned—
