I move:

That the resolution agreed to on 24 June 2014 relating to the consideration of the Clean Energy Legislation (Carbon Tax Repeal) Bill 2013 (No. 2) and 10 related bills be varied to exclude the Clean Energy Finance Corporation (Abolition) Bill 2014 and to make the further consideration of that bill an order of the day for the next sitting.

I draw attention to the House to the fact that we have just had the government move a Clive Palmer amendment. I draw the attention of the House to the words of the Prime Minister before the election, and I quote:

There will not be deals done with independents and minor parties under any political movement that I lead.

From the Prime Minister in February 2012:

There are no dodgy, done-in-the-dark deals under the Coalition.

From the Prime Minister:

We don’t want another government dependent upon wayward independents.

There is a long list of readings from the book of Palmer. There is a long list of readings available that we are now going to be hearing from those opposite. And we will add this to the list of the number of things where they made one commitment before the election and then do the exact opposite when they are in office.

The question is that the motion be agreed to.

Question agreed to.
