CANBERRA nike air max 270 flyknit scontate , Feb. 2 (Xinhua) -- Female Australian MPs will from Tuesday be allowed to breastfeed in the House of Representatives, after standing orders banning "guests" in the chamber were revised to exclude children of breastfeeding age.


Leader of the House Christopher Pyne announced the landmark changes in parliament on Tuesday, and said there was no place for outdated rules which act as a roadblock for women pursuing a career in politics.


"I want to see as many women entering parliament as possible and for them to not be deterred by any antiquated rules or practices that currently govern how our parliament operates," Pyne said on Tuesday.


"There is absolutely no reason that rules should remain in place which make life in politics and the parliament more difficult for women."


Late last year, Opposition Leader Bill Shorten called for the "archaic conventions" to be scrapped from parliament, after a female MP was told to "express more milk" prior to entering the chamber to keep her child occupied.


Prior to that nike air max 270 donne scontate , in 2003, MP Kirstie Marshall was infamously booted out of parliament for breastfeeding her 11-day-old daughter.


Further to the changes allowing breastfeeding in the chamber, Pyne also announced that male MPs would be allowed to care for newborn children, should no other option be available.


"No member of parliament, male or female, will ever again be prevented from participating fully in the law making processes of parliament because they are also caring for their child nike air max 270 uomo scontate ," Pyne said.


The innovation minister called upon state government to adopt similar laws.
