Migration Amendment (Prohibiting Items in Immigration Detention Facilities) Bill 2017 - Second Reading - Main idea of the bill
Passed by a small majority
No rebellions 96% attendance
7th Feb 2018, 4:48 PM – Representatives Migration Amendment (Prohibiting Items in Immigration Detention Facilities) Bill 2017 - Second Reading - Don't read the bill a second time
Summary
EditThe majority voted against this motion that would have amended the usual second reading motion ("That this bill be now read a second time") with the following words:
That all words after "That" be omitted with a view to substituting the following words:
"the House declines to give the bill a second reading because the bill as written is too broad, poorly drafted and has unintended consequences"
Had this motion been successful, the bill would have failed in the House of Representatives and so wouldn't have been considered any further.
What does this bill do?
The bill was introduced to allow the minister to decide that something is a 'prohibited item' in relation to an immigration detention facility and increases the powers of authorised officers and assistants to search both facilities and people entering those facilities in order to find and seize those items.
