Suspension of Standing Orders


Ian Macdonald

Ian Macdonald Queensland, Liberal Party, Shadow Parliamentary Secretary for Northern and Remote Australia

11:48 am

Mr President, I seek leave to move a motion in relation to the hours of sitting which will remove from paragraph 2 the words, ‘that the hours of meeting shall be 9 am to 3.30 pm’ and, in lieu thereof, insert the words ‘shall continue until such time as the bills listed in paragraph 6(c) are dealt with and determined’.

Leave not granted.

Mr President, I move:

That so much of standing orders be suspended as would prevent me from moving a motion to amend the revised order of business.
