I ask that general business notice of motion No. 669, relating to Indigenous deaths in custody, be taken as a formal motion.

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:

The question is that the motion to suspend standing orders be agreed to.
