Urgent Debates Declined

Mr SPEAKER Link to this

I have received a letter from the Hon Pete Hodgson seeking to debate under Standing Order 380 the announcement that Pansy Wong has accepted that she breached Cabinet Manual rules in her conduct as a Minister, and will be resigning from Parliament as a result. The member provided no authentication for the statement set out in his letter, and an anticipated announcement cannot be a particular case of recent occurrence. The application is therefore declined.
