Petroleum and Other Fuels Reporting Bill 2017 and another - Third Reading - Speed things along
Passed by a small majority
No rebellions 95% attendance
15th Aug 2017, 6:48 PM – Representatives Petroleum and Other Fuels Reporting Bill 2017 and another - Second Reading - National energy policy + affordable gas
Summary
EditThe majority voted against the following motion:
That all words after “That” be omitted with a view to substituting the following words:
“whilst not declining to give the bill a second reading the House notes the Government’s:
(1) lack of national energy policy, which is causing an investment strike in new electricity generation; and
(2) failure to ensure an adequate and affordable gas supply for Australian industry while Australia becomes the world’s largest LNG exporter”.
This means that this wording is rejected and the second reading motion will remain as it is.
What is a second reading?
A "second reading" motion is one where the house votes on whether they agree with the main idea of the bill. A bill needs to be read for a second time before it can be discussed in greater detail.
This sort of motion (where extra text is added to a second reading motion without actually refusing it a second reading) is a way for the opposition to express their views without stopping a bill from actually passing through the house.
