I ask that general business notice of motion No. 669, relating to Indigenous deaths in custody, be taken as a formal motion.
Scott Ryan (President) Share this | Link to this | Hansard source
There is an objection to the motion being taken as formal. That was discussed before, by leave. Formality has been denied, as foreshadowed in the earlier discussion.

Pursuant to the contingent notice standing in the name of Senator Hanson, I move:
That so much of the standing orders be suspended as would prevent the motion being moved immediately and determined without amendment or debate.
Scott Ryan (President) Share this | Link to this | Hansard source
The question is that the motion to suspend standing orders be agreed to.
