Title

  • Bills — Treasury Laws Amendment (Ending Grandfathered Conflicted Remuneration) Bill 2019; Second Reading
  • Treasury Laws Amendment (Ending Grandfathered Conflicted Remuneration) Bill 2019 - Second Reading - Grandfathering arrangements

Description

  • <p class="speaker">Tony Smith</p>
  • <p>( In accordance with standing order 133, I shall now proceed to put the question on the motion moved earlier today by the honourable member for Whitlam, on which a division was called for and deferred in accordance with the standing orders. No further debate is allowed.</p>
  • <p>The original question was that this bill be now read a second time. To this the honourable member for Whitlam has moved as an amendment that all words after 'That' be omitted with a view to substituting other words. The question before the House is that the amendment moved by the member for Whitlam be agreed to.</p>
  • The majority voted against an amendment to the usual [second reading](https://www.peo.gov.au/understand-our-parliament/how-parliament-works/bills-and-laws/making-a-law-in-the-australian-parliament/) motion "*that the bills be read a second time*", which is parliamentary jargon for agreeing with the main idea of the bill. Since this vote was unsuccessful, the second reading motion will remain unchanged.
