Suspension of Standing and Sessional Orders
Stephen Smith Perth, Australian Labor Party, Deputy Leader of the House
9:15 am
The opposition has moved that the House suspend standing orders to enable a debate to occur on climate change. This is a debate which the government has been mounting in the community for all of this term. The one thing that the opposition—neither the member for Flinders nor the member who has reserved her rights—have not told us this morning is why standing orders ought to be suspended today. I heard briefly from the member for Flinders about matters relating to Monday.
