House debates Matters of Public Importance
Australia’s Future Prosperity
David Hawker Speaker
I have received a letter from the honourable the Leader of the Opposition proposing that a definite matter of public importance be submitted to the House for discussion, namely:
The need for fresh thinking and new leadership to secure Australia’s future prosperity.
I call upon those members who approve of the proposed discussion to rise in their places.
More than the number of members required by the standing orders having risen in their places—
Kevin Rudd Griffith, Australian Labor Party, Leader of the Opposition
4:42 pm
Tony Abbott Warringah, Liberal Party, Leader of the House
4:44 pm
I move:
That the business of the day be called on.
Question put.
