Title
Bills — Special Recreational Vessels Bill 2019; Second Reading
- Special Recreational Vessels Bill 2019 - Second Reading - Support Australia's shipping industry
Description
<p class='motion-notice motion-notice-truncated'>Long debate text truncated.</p>
- The majority voted against an [amendment](https://www.openaustralia.org.au/debates/?id=2019-12-03.104.1) 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, which is that the bill be read a second time (parliamentary jargon for agreeing with the main idea of the bill).
- ### Amendment text
- > *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:*
- >
- > *(1) notes this Government's record of undermining the Australian shipping industry; and*
- >
- > *(2) reaffirms that Australia's tourism industry, marine and coastal environment, and national security interests are best served by a viable and competitive shipping industry".*
