The majority agreed with the motions moved by Liberal Senator Richard Colbeck and by Senator Colbeck and Family First Senator Steve Fielding, which means they were successful.(Read the complete debate on these motions here. )

Because these motions of disallowance were successful, the instruments are disallowed and therefore will cease to have effect.(Read more about motions of disallowance here.)

That the Export Control (Fees) Amendment Orders 2009 (No. 1), made under regulation 3 of the Export Control (Orders) Regulations 1982, be disallowed.
