Summary

Edit

The majority voted in favour of a motion to pass the bill in the House, which means that it will now be sent to the Senate for their consideration. In parliamentary jargon, the majority voted to read the bill for a third time.

What does the bill do?

The bill was introduced "to establish the Cashless Debit Card (CDC) as an ongoing program rather than a time-limited trial". The CDC program is controversial for many reasons, not least the limited evidence that it is benefiting the communities where it is currently in operation.
