Points of Order — Select Committees—Minority Reports
Time unknown
I raise a point of order, Mr Speaker. I waited until the end of question time because we have spent a lot of time on select committee business at the front of the hour. I want to pick up on the invitation the Leader of the House made earlier—that perhaps one way of resolving what is normally a pretty bipartisan process of minority reports would be if I sought leave to move a motion without debate to instruct the report to be referred back to the Law and Order Committee so that it can resolve the minority report issue and report back to the House by tomorrow.
💬 Mr SPEAKER: Leave is sought for that course of action to be followed. Is there any objection? There is objection.
