House debates Business
Suspension of Standing and Sessional Orders
Dan Tehan Wannon, Liberal Party, Shadow Minister for Energy and Emissions Reduction
6:00 pm
I move:
That so much of standing and sessional orders be suspended as would prevent the member for Wannon for moving the following motion immediately:
That this House condemns the Albanese Labor government for its betrayal of older Australians with its cruel $11 billion cut to the private health insurance rebate.
As they leave—and only 12 per cent of them had the courage to vote for this—know that 1.5 million pensioners are poorer because of what they just did. That is 1.5 million pensioners.
Mr Tony Burke Watson, Australian Labor Party, Leader of the House
6:01 pm
I move:
That order of the day No. 3, government business, be called on immediately.
Milton Dick Speaker
The question is that government order of the day No. 3 be called on immediately.
