Indeed, including the notion that it's used in the Australian Senate. You'll recall the discussions that the South Australian Senate understands the term, but they don't use it. To quote the December 2003 core report: - grog reports a discussion with a member of the SA Senate. The term "unanimous consent" is not used in Australian politics, and it could be interpreted both ways. Any interpretation would be subject to quorum requirements. > After some consultation with Mark Murray, change this to 'without > objection' since often times a plain-speaking term is preferable > to a regionally used term.
