Title
Bills — Future Made in Australia Bill 2024; Third Reading- Future Made in Australia Bill 2024 - Third Reading - Vote on the bill straight away
Description
<p class="speaker">Jim Chalmers</p><p>I ask leave of the House to move the third reading immediately.</p>-
- The majority voted in favour of a [motion](https://www.openaustralia.org.au/debates/?id=2024-09-09.134.1) "*That so much of the standing orders be suspended as would prevent the motion for the third reading being moved without delay.*" In other words, they voted to end debate and instead vote on whether to pass the bill right away. Standing orders are the usual procedural rules of parliament.
- ### What does this bill do?
- The [bills digest](https://www.aph.gov.au/Parliamentary_Business/Bills_Legislation/bd/bd2425/25bd006) (which is a document prepared by the parliamentary library) explained that:
- > *The Future Made in Australia Bill 2024 establishes a new principal Act under the Government’s Future Made in Australia agenda, including:*
- >
- > * *creating the National Interest Framework as the means by which sectors will be identified as potential candidates for support under Future Made in Australia*
- >
- > * *setting out community benefit principles which aim to ensure investments deliver benefits to the Australian community and grow priority sectors.*
- >
- > *The Future Made in Australia (Omnibus Amendments No. 1) Bill 2024 amends:*
- >
- > * *the Export Finance and Insurance Corporation Act 1991 to enable Export Finance Australia (EFA) to perform national economy and net zero functions, and to fund domestic projects that align with these functions.*
- >
- > * *the Australian Renewable Energy Agency Act 2011 to expand the role and functions of the Australian Renewable Energy Agency so it can support industries under the Future Made in Australia Innovation Fund and other programs.*
- >
- > *The Bills give effect to key aspects of the Albanese Government’s Future Made in Australia industrial policy agenda: a plan for explicit public investment at scale to attract private finance in sectors that have a comparative advantage in a net zero global economy, or where domestic capability could deliver economic resilience and supply chain security.*
- >
- > *The plan aims to ensure that Australia can take advantage of the economic and industrial benefits of the global move to net zero and to secure Australia’s place in the new geopolitical landscape where global competition is being reorganised around preferential trading blocks.*
- >
- > *The Bills have been referred to the Senate Economics Legislation Committee for inquiry and report by 5 September 2024.*
