Honourable senators, Senator Cadell has submitted a proposal under standing order 75:

Pursuant to standing order 75, I give notice that today I propose to move "That, in the opinion of the Senate, the following is a matter of urgency:

The need for the Senate to acknowledge the shocking flaws in Labor's misinformation bill, and for the Government to categorically rule out reintroducing it"

Is the proposal supported?

More than the number of senators required by the standing orders having risen in their places—

With the concurrence of the Senate, the clerks will set the clock in line with the informal arrangements made by the whips.
