Gillard Government

Censure Motion

3:24 pm

The Acting Deputy President:

Senator Brown, the objectionable words are your unwillingness to abide by a ruling of the chair. Several senators have drawn my attention to the provisions of standing order 203. I have consulted the Clerk on the matter. Senator Brown, it is clear, on the advice that I have received, and on the view of your fellow senators, that there is a breach of Senate standing order 203. For the final time, I ask that you withdraw your offensive remarks; otherwise, I will be obliged to name you.
