A stay - for Te Pāti Māori MPs expecting debate on possible suspension today.
The Privileges Committee recommended suspensions for Rawiri Waititi, Debbie Ngarewa-Packer and Hana Rawhiti Maipi-Clarke for a protest haka during voting on the contentious Treaty Principles Bill.
But 20 minutes after the debate began, Parliament's voted to adjourn it.
Newstalk ZB political editor Jason Walls unpacked today's events - and discussed why National wanted the focus off this matter during Budget week.
