Ms Anna Burke (Chisholm, Deputy-Speaker) Share this | Hansard source

I believe that the member for Dobell has the right to vote and that nothing would exclude a member from voting, but that is without reference to the House of RepresentativesPractice and so I will check that and come back. But I cannot see in any circumstances where a member cannot vote in a suspension. The question is that the motion be agreed to.

The member for Sturt may wish to refer to the House of Representatives Practice, page 271, and I stand by my original decision that the member has an entitlement to vote.
