House debates Questions without Notice

Question Time

Thursday, 7 December 2017 House of Representatives

Bill Shorten

Bill Shorten Maribyrnong, Australian Labor Party, Leader of the Opposition

2:00 pm

My question is to the Prime Minister. As the Prime Minister is aware, debate on the marriage equality legislation is taking longer than expected, with worthwhile contributions from all. That's why, a short time ago, I contacted the Prime Minister to make the unusual offer to defer question time today so that we could pass marriage equality as a matter of urgency. Will the Prime Minister join with Labor to get this done as soon as possible?
