Parliament House Matters

Educational Video

The SPEAKER (11:08): I advise the house that an educational video about parliament is being produced by the staff of the house. We have had these videos in the past. It will be necessary for realistic footage to be shot from the floor of the house and, accordingly, during this sitting week I have approved filming from the floor of the house and the various galleries to capture footage of the proceedings of the house for use in educational videos.

Ms Bedford interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Indeed. It is also my view that brief filming of the actual proceedings will assist the house, and I invite members to agree to a suspension of standing orders to permit filming of the proceedings of the house, including part of question time, from areas within the chamber.

The Hon. A. PICCOLO (Light—Minister for Disabilities, Minister for Police, Minister for Correctional Services, Minister for Emergency Services, Minister for Road Safety) (11:09): I move:

That, in view of the request made to the Speaker, standing orders be and remain so far suspended during the sitting week as to enable strangers to film proceedings from the vicinity of the table for the purpose of an educational video.

An absolute majority of the whole number of members being present:

Motion carried.
