Mr Tony Burke Watson, Australian Labor Party, Leader of the House

I move:
That so much of the standing and sessional orders be suspended as would prevent order of the day No. 5, government business, relating to the Prime Minister's motion on the Member for Indi, being called on at the conclusion of 90 second statements and the question being put immediately.
For the information of members: this would have been part of the later resolution that manages the rest of the week, but I didn't want to put some members who would want to oppose other parts of the resolution in a position where the timing of this particular vote was part of that motion—so, for that reason, I move it separately.
Question agreed to.
