The Chair, Cr Toomey; Deputy Mayor, Cr Adams; and Cr Murphy work together to stifle her criticism.

The Chair eventually uses his formal powers of reprimand to force Cr Johnston to stop talking about EBSS. Cr Johnston moves dissent. Labor and the Greens abstain from the dissent motion, which is voted down by the LNP 18-1.
