Excuse me, the member for Swan. The Leader of the House?

Given that the member only moments ago voted for a gag motion, I move:
That the member be no longer heard.
Question unresolved.

The question is unresolved. In accordance with standing order 188, the question will be included in the Federation Chamber's report to the House. I might add that I think this is disorderly conduct and, as such, we'll withhold the operations of the chamber for 15 minutes. It will be resumed on return of the chair.
Sitting suspended from 10:47 to 11:01
