Social Security Legislation Rewrite Bill

Have you called that next Government motion, sir?

ASSISTANT SPEAKER (Adrian Rurawhe): Yes. I have announced it, yes.

Great. The Government has taken a very hard line today about legislative mishaps, as indicated in the debate we just had on a three-page bill that is being referred to a select committee. This is one of two Supplementary Order Papers that’s been tabled—

💬 Hon Andrew Little: I raise a point of order, Mr Speaker.

ASSISTANT SPEAKER (Adrian Rurawhe): I’ll hear this point of order first, sorry.

—today, and it deserves full legislative scrutiny so that there are no legislative mishaps. I move, That the order of the day for the second reading of the Social Security Legislation Rewrite Bill be discharged and that the bill be referred to the Social Services and Community Committee for further consideration.
