Senator HANSON (Queensland) (12:41): I ask that general business notice of motion No. 1388 standing in my name for today, relating to Queensland Nickel, be taken as formal. The PRESIDENT: Is there any objection to this motion being taken as formal? An honourable senator: Yes. The PRESIDENT: There is. Senator Hanson, the motion has been denied formality. Senator HANSON: In lieu of suspending standing orders, I seek leave to make a short statement. Leave not granted. Senator HANSON: Pursuant to contingent notice, I move: That so much of the standing orders be suspended as would prevent the motion being moved immediately and determined without amendment or debate. The PRESIDENT: Pursuant to the order adopted, that motion will now be put, without debate, immediately. The question is that so much of standing orders be suspended as would allow motion No. 1388 to be dealt with as a formal motion.
