Points of Order

Hon BILL ENGLISH (Deputy Leader—National) Link to this

I raise a point of order, Madam Speaker. You will be aware of media reports that Gordon Copeland intends to resign this afternoon from United Future. That means that the governing coalition will then command only 59 votes in the House unless it negotiates arrangements with Mr Copeland or with the Greens. In the light of that important change in the balance of voting in the House, I seek leave to ask the Prime Minister an urgent question.
