Anthony Albanese (Grayndler, Australian Labor Party, Leader of the House) Share this | Hansard source

On a point of order, Speaker. Page 298 of House of Representatives Practice states very clearly that a motion may not be brought forward which relates to a matter awaiting or under adjudication by a court of law. In 1995 the Speaker wrote to a member, drawing the member's attention to the fact that certain matters relevant to a notice lodged by the member were sub judice and expressing the view that discussion of the matter should not take place. It is very clear that this is precisely the matter that is before the court.
