Summary

Edit

The majority voted in favour of a motion to keep the usual second reading motion unchanged. In parliamentary jargon, they voted "that the words proposed to be omitted stand part of the question."

The usual second reading motion is "that the bill be read a second time," which is parliamentary jargon for agreeing with the main idea of the bill. This vote took place after Gorton MP Brendan O'Connor (Labor) proposed the amendment below.

Proposed 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) acknowledges the bill provides for reduced rates of customs duty for goods required to combat the COVID-19 pandemic; and

(2) notes that the Government has failed to outline a plan to address the economic impacts of COVID-19."

Votes Passed by a small majority

Nobody rebelled against their party.
