The Senate will now consider the proposal from Senator O'Sullivan, which is also shown at item 16 on today's Order of Business:

Pursuant to standing order 75, I propose that the following matter of public importance be submitted to the Senate for discussion:

The need for Prime Minister Albanese to prioritise helping Australian households and small businesses deal with the cost of living crisis.

Is the proposal supported?
