National Disability Insurance Scheme

The majority voted against a motion to suspend the usual procedural rules of parliament - known as standing and sessional orders - in order to let another motion be moved. It was introduced by Bradfield MP Paul Fletcher (Liberal).

Motion text

That so much of the standing and sessional orders be suspended as would prevent the Manager of Opposition Business from moving the following motion forthwith:

That the Minister for the National Disability Insurance Scheme be required to come into the House immediately and withdraw his factually incorrect claims about the issue of media releases concerning the NDIS and fraud under the previous coalition government, and apologise for misleading the House.
