I seek leave to move the following motion:

That this House:

(1) notes:

(a) the Member for Hughes' repeated use of social media to spread damaging mistruths about COVID-19;

(b) comments made by the Member for Hughes regarding COVID-19 vaccinations which have the potential to undermine public confidence in the upcoming rollout;

(c) the Member for Hughes' claims have repeatedly been refuted by health experts;

(d) last week, the Member for Hughes told SBS he is in "regular contact with the Health Minister and the Prime Minister's office";

(e) yesterday at the National Press Club, the Prime Minister again refused to condemn the Member for Hughes' irresponsible and dangerous comments during a pandemic; and

(2) calls on the Prime Minister to condemn the irresponsible and dangerous comments of the Member for Hughes.

Leave not granted.

I move:

That so much of the standing orders be suspended as would prevent the Member for Hindmarsh from moving the following motion immediately—

That this House:

(1) notes:

(a) the Member for Hughes' repeated use of social media to spread damaging mistruths about COVID-19;

(b) comments made by the Member for Hughes regarding COVID-19 vaccinations which have the potential to undermine public confidence in the upcoming rollout;

(c) the Member for Hughes' claims have repeatedly been refuted by health experts;

(d) last week, the Member for Hughes told SBS he is in "regular contact with the Health Minister and the Prime Minister's office";

(e) yesterday at the National Press Club, the Prime Minister again refused to condemn the Member for Hughes' irresponsible and dangerous comments during a pandemic; and

(2) calls on the Prime Minister to condemn the irresponsible and dangerous comments of the Member for Hughes.

The member for Hughes is a dangerous menace to the national COVID-19 response.
