The government has confirmed that it will no longer seek urgency on Sue Bradford's anti-smacking bill.
Labour had been seeking support for the final stages of the private member's bill to be considered under urgency on Wednesday.
But a spokesman for the office of Deputy Prime Minister Michael Cullen says that will no longer happen.
Amendments to Sue Bradford's bill will still be debated by Parliament on Wednesday.
