The LNP allows Cr Johnston to suspend standing orders in order to move a motion to drop the speed limit on Venner Road from 60 km/h to 50 km/h for pedestrian, cyclist, and driver safety.

The LNP immediately moves the debate for this motion to the very end of the day's business. If I had to guess, this is a stalling tactic until they can figure out what they want to do. I would guess they'll end up laying the motion on the table "until further investigation".

Labor Councillors also try moving an urgency motion, in their case about wildlife safety on roads. The same delaying tactics are used.
