Rearrangement

Katy Gallagher

Noting that, if senators wish, they're able to ask that the question be put separately on bills, I move:

That on Wednesday, 27 March 2024-

(a) after formal motions, the questions on all remaining stages of the following bills then be put immediately:

(i) Migration Amendment (Removal and Other Measures) Bill 2024,

(b) paragraph (a) operate as a limitation of debate under standing order 142;

(c) divisions may take place after 6.30 pm until consideration of the bills has concluded; and

(d) the Senate adjourn without debate on the motion of a minister (after consideration of the bills has concluded).

I also move:

That the question be now put.

Sue Lines

The question is that the closure motion as moved by Senator Gallagher be agreed to. Once again, we have advisers on the move. I said last time it was the last warning. I will ask the attendant to ask you to leave. It is a privilege for you to be in here and I expect you to adhere to the same rules as everyone else.

Jordon Steele-John

Stop bullying the staff.

Sue Lines

Senator Birmingham?

Simon Birmingham

A point of order, President. Senator Steele-John should withdraw that reflection upon the chair.

Sue Lines

Senator Steele-John, I didn't hear the reflection, but I accept the advice from Senator Birmingham and I'm going to ask you to withdraw the comment.

Jordon Steele-John

I withdraw. Stop using your position to direct staff.

Sue Lines

No. Senator Steele-John, I want an unequivocal withdrawal, no comment.

Jordon Steele-John

I withdraw.
