 Yesterday, the ports of Auckland laid off 292 workers. This is the first opportunity this council has had to discuss it. We do have an interest in this. I don't care what I hear the mayor saying on the radio in the mornings. I would like it discussed at this forum today by the council of Auckland. What's the role of that? So what is the... Have you got any words around what you want to say? I'll give you plenty of words as we go through the discussion. Right now, I would like it discussed as an extraordinary item the involvement of council in the decision of the ports of Auckland to sack 292 workers. No involvement. Point of order, Madam Chair. I don't believe that understanding orders that we can raise this issue. With respect through the chair, I have had a notice of motion turned down by the mayor with a promise that it could be done. That it could be put to any full committee of council before the ports decided to contract out. That promise has not been kept. The chief executive still has that notice of motion. It is in writing and he can produce it anytime if you want some words in writing. This is the first meeting of the full council since the decision yesterday to sack the workers. I mean, it was never the decision of this council. However, Councillor Casey, I'm happy to put it to the vote that we have an extraordinary item on trying to think about the words to say. Can we tell what Standing Order says? Do you need to understand Standing Order before she raises the issue? Well, an item not on the agenda may be dealt with by the local authority by resolution. There is a notice of motion that could be got if you would like to put extra ordinary business further up the meeting. I'm sure the chief executive can pull out of his drawer and she can just wish you to vote. Can we tell what the Standing Order says on this issue? It allows you to put it. It's actually in the agenda under seven about the extraordinary item on the ports. Madam Chair, understanding orders wise has made it not on the agenda. I explained because it happened yesterday. I was at the Albert Eden board last night till half past nine. I got up early this morning. I've been at the race relations report launch and I haven't had the chance. But we do have a notice of motion already drafted and it has been submitted through due process and ignored. That's all good. Just say yes. So, have I got a seconder for this extraordinary...Councillor Norley? I know. Now we are voting on whether or not we will accept this item as extraordinary business. Madam Chair, I'm sort of confused, Madam Chair. Hi, Councillor Eisen. Can I ask why the discussion of this item cannot be delayed until a subsequent meeting? Because, Councillor Casey has asked for it to be put as an extraordinary business at this meeting. Councillor Gowdy, you are confused. So, councillors, just to provide some additional information, councillor Norley has a chairman's report coming to the accountability and performance committee meeting next week on the same item. Excuse me, it's my extraordinary item. It's not the same item. My item is this council's response to the events of yesterday. It's political, Andrew. It's nothing to do with ever happening next week. Exactly. And, Cathy, I'm listening to you. I'm just trying to make... I don't want to... That's out of order. Cathy, Councillor Casey, I am trying to deal with this in a way that you've put it up. I'm trying to get the councillors to understand what we're voting on. And that was useful information from CFO. Councillor Gowdy said he is confused. Councillor Casey has asked for this to be put as an extraordinary business at this meeting. It's been moved and seconded. I have to put it as the council will accept it as an item of extraordinary business. And I haven't put it yet. Now, Councillor Gowdy. Disgraceful. So we're just voting on whether we want to chat about what happened yesterday. Exactly. Yes. Later on in the meeting. Councillor Fletcher. I understand that this is within Standing Orders. And I would just encourage you to put the matter as quickly as possible and by division. Thank you. That's right. Okay. That this item become an item of extraordinary business. All those in favour. Oh, it's been... Stop smoking, Andrew. You don't need to smoke. Now, Cathy... Flagrant abuse of our CFOs got to stop. She's out of order. Get her out of the meeting. No, Councillor Brewer. I'm in the chair. It's graceful. It's absolutely disgraceful. If I stand up, you'll have to shut up. That's really good. I've done that worse before. Now, it's the debate of course. And we said it was all care to do that. Councillor Casey, you are out of order now, and I don't want to ask you to leave, but I will if you don't. My 17 years as a coser, I've never seen you like that. Councillor Casey, would you leave the chamber? Thank you. What, you're going to call your goons? I'm not. I'm just trying to get you to grow up and settle down. We're all trying to do work through this. We're all very concerned about it. You're not the only one. Right. Thank you. So I'm going to put that... Madam Chair, just clarification. Standing orders if the chair asks a member to leave the chamber. Are you going to enforce that or...? No, I'll go. If that's what you want. Well, that was what she's asked. I'll withdraw it. Stay here for the vote. Cathy. Aish. I'm sure she knows that way. Probably better that she leaves and takes interest outside. Right, we will put it in my division that we have this item as an extraordinary item on the agenda. I'm just finding if you can, the council's left the room. Yes, because it's on the table. It's someone standing orders. Actually, I can't put it because she's left the room. Oh, it's standing orders. Is that true? You can put it because the voting was in place. I'm getting nods from various of my senior staff. The councillor. The motion is on the table. Exactly. I can put the motion. Okay, thank you. We had a friendly council. Councilor, no. Councilor Fletcher. Councilor Gaudi. No. Councilor Hartley. She's gone. No. Councilor Northy. Yes. Councilor Penro. No. Councilor Quacks. No. Council Wettel. No. Councilor John Walker. No. That's lost. Thank you. Right.
