I move:

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

That this House:

(a) notes that the Prime Minister has purported to quote statements made by the director-general of ASIO in a recent interview on Insiders;

(b) notes that the purported quote specifically omits key words;

(c) considers that this constitutes a deliberate misleading of this House; and

(d) calls on the Prime Minister to apologise to this House.

This Prime Minister has no shame. He's misled the House, and he should apologise. He's made our country less safe.

Order! The Leader of the Opposition will resume his seat. I want to hear from the Leader of the House.

Under standing order 47(e), I require the debate to take place after the MPI.
