🗣️ Speech Sir Rt Hon Trevor Mallard (New Zealand Labour Party — Member for Hutt South)
Time unknown

I raise a point of order, Mr Speaker. I seek leave to move a motion without notice supporting the defence forces, consistent with the signs currently showing on Labour benches.

💬 Mr SPEAKER: Let me understand just exactly what is being sought.

Leave is being sought to move a motion without notice supporting the defence forces, consistent with the signs.

💬 Mr SPEAKER: Leave is being sought to move a motion without notice, and there is no question that leave can be sought for that without notice. Is there any objection to that course of action being followed? There is objection. I ask the senior Opposition whip to remove the signage, please. I thank the honourable member.
