House of Representatives Sitting - 4 February 2009 [Part 1]

On 4 February 2009, the House of Representatives sat continuously for over 20 hours to enact the government's response to the Global Financial Crisis, adjourning at 5:27 am on the following day. The House adjourned for just 5 hours before the proper sitting for 5 February 2009 began.


While this channel strives to showcase the Australian Senate, this sitting was worth uploading from the archives especially since the Senate had a normal sitting.

Question Time begins at: 5:02:03

This is part 1 of 2.
