Senator Bragg has submitted a proposal, under standing order 75, today, which has been circulated and is shown on the Dynamic Red:

Labor's housing agenda is another broken promise, with the Prime Minister doing a dirty deal with the Greens to ram through housing tax hikes that risk worsening the housing and rental shortage, all while the Government is already more than 100,000 homes short of its own target and now needs some 270,000 homes built each year by mid-2029.

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.
