Senator Hanson-Young, I am advised by the Clerk that there is no specific contingent motion for you to do that. You can move to suspend standing orders but you would need then the concurrence of an absolute majority of the Senate to do that. You can move to suspend standing orders but not pursuant to a contingent motion.
