I seek leave to move a motion without notice or debate that this House congratulate Robert Martin on being elected to the United Nations Committee on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities—

💬 Mr SPEAKER: Order! I just need to put the leave first. Leave is sought for that course of action. Is there any objection to that action being followed? There is none.

I move, That this House congratulate Robert Martin on his election to the United Nations Committee on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities and acknowledge that Robert has made history as the first person with a learning disability to be elected to a United Nations committee.
