Milton Dick

A serious incident occurred during question time, and it has been brought to my attention what occurred. I'm deeply concerned and troubled by the incident. The member for Groom has shown severe disrespect to this House through his words and his actions. I take these matters extremely seriously. This is a new low that I have witnessed, and, as a result of these actions, I've been left with no other choice. Because of the respect and dignity of this House and because of his actions, I now name the member for Groom.

Tony Burke

I move:

That the Member for Groom be suspended from the service of the House.

Milton Dick

The question is that the member for Groom be suspended from the service of the House.

This is the question as put in the chamber, with the name of the member who spoke before the vote. It isn't a summary of the bill or motion.
