Sarah Hanson-Young
I seek leave to make a short statement.
Sue Lines
Leave is granted for one minute.
Sarah Hanson-Young
The Greens are disappointed that the government is moving to guillotine these bills through the parliament. We are concerned that the Senate has not had enough time—a reasonable amount of time—to consider in detail the Future Made in Australia piece of legislation. We are only halfway through the second reading speeches. There will be amendments, and the government wants to ram this through. The Senate has a duty to properly consider bills before ramming them through, so we will be asking for the question to be put separately on each of these bills, because we are worried that the government wants to ram things through simply because they are not prepared to negotiate properly.
Sue Lines
Senator Hanson-Young, I just remind you you can only ask for the matter to be split up if you intend to vote differently on each one. If that's your intention, that's all fine. Is that your intention?
Sarah Hanson-Young
I'm just flagging—there might be other people who have problems with this as well.
Sue Lines
Well, they can rise and speak.
Sarah Hanson-Young
What I'm saying is that we have concerns with Future Made in Australia and the naval bill, two things that the government wants to ram through this place without giving it reasonable consideration.
Sue Lines
You've had a minute to explain your opposition. You wanted them all put separately. I have come back to you and said that's only possible—so I'm still not understanding what it is the Greens are seeking. Senator McKim?
Nick McKim
If I could assist, the Greens will be asking that the question be put separately on the Future Made in Australia cognate bills and the bills that have just been included by amendment by Senator Gallagher on the naval matters, but the Greens wish to vote against both of those.
Sue Lines
That means that we will do (i) and (ii) together and (iii) and (iv) together.
Jonathon Duniam
I seek leave to make a short statement.
Sue Lines
Leave is granted for one minute.
Jonathon Duniam
We request that (iii) be put separately so that Future Made in Australia is put on its own as opposed to with (iv).
Sue Lines
We're putting (i) and (ii) together, (iii) on its own and then (iv). The question is that the motion in respect of paragraphs (i) and (ii) be agreed to.
Question agreed to.
The question is that the motion in relation to paragraph (iii) be agreed to.
A division having been called and the bells being rung—
Senator Thorpe, you are out of order! Senator Thorpe, take your seat.
Senator Thorpe, I've asked you to take your seat. If you're going to be disruptive, leave the chamber.
