Senator Payman has submitted a proposal, under standing order 75, today, as shown at item 14 of today's Order of Business:

Pursuant to standing order 75, I give notice that today I propose to move "That, in the opinion of the Senate, the following is a matter of urgency:

The need for the Australian Government to address the increasing accessibility and affordability issues that are preventing Australian families from accessing quality early childhood education and care by imposing a 25% tax on gas exports".

Is consideration of the proposal supported?

More than the number of senators required by the standing orders having risen in their places—

With the concurrence of the Senate, the clerks will set the clock in line with the informal arrangements made by the whips.
