15th Jun 2006, 4:51 PM – Senate Petroleum Retail Marketing Sites Amendment Regulations 2006 (No. 1) - Motion for Disallowance - Disallow the Regulations
Summary
EditThe majority voted against a motion introduced by Senator Barnaby Joyce. The motion was:
That the Petroleum Retail Marketing Sites Amendment Regulations 2006 (No. 1), as contained in Select Legislative Instrument 2006 No. 73 and made under the Petroleum Retail Marketing Sites Act 1980, be disallowed.

Senator Joyce rebelled and crossed the floor to vote 'aye' in favour of his amendment.(Read more about what it means to cross the floor in our FAQ Section.)
