I seek leave to move a motion concerning the consideration of the Fair Work (Registered Organisations) Amendment (Administration) Bill 2024.

Leave not granted.

Pursuant to contingent notice, I move:

That so much of standing orders be suspended as would prevent me moving a motion to provide for the consideration of a matter, namely a motion concerning the consideration of the Fair Work (Registered Organisations) Amendment (Administration) Bill 2024.

I move:

That the question be now put.
