by leave—I move:

That standing orders 123 and 122(1) and 122(2) not apply to the consideration of the Fair Work (Registered Organisations) Amendment Bill 2014 [No. 2].

Senators will recall that on 25 June 2015 the usual procedural motion that this bill may proceed without formalities was not agreed to. I understand that senators are now happy for the bill to proceed without formalities, which is the effect of the motion I have just moved.

Question agreed to.
