I move:

That so much of the standing and sessional orders be suspended as would prevent the following:

(1) the Member for Kennedy moving:

That this House:

(a) expresses its strong support for the people of Israel who, on 7 October 2023, were subjected to an appalling and unprovoked terrorist invasion and attack upon Israel; and

(b) calls on the Parliament of Australia to condemn the terrorist organisation Hamas and demand that the people responsible for the invasion of Israel and consequent war release the hostages taken in this invasion;

(2) debate on the motion being limited to the mover, seconder and two other members;

(3) amendments to the motion not being permitted; and

(4) any variation to the arrangement being made only on a motion moved by a Minister.

Question agreed to, with an absolute majority.
