15th Sep 2016, 9:12 PM – Senate Budget Savings (Omnibus) Bill 2016 - Second Reading - ARENA funding
Summary
EditThe majority voted against a motion introduced by Greens Senator Larissa Waters, which means it was unsuccessful.
Motion text
At the end of the motion, add:
, but the Senate condemns this bill for ripping $500 million from the Australian Renewable Energy Agency's clean energy innovation grants as a dangerous and irresponsible act of sabotage, especially in a climate emergency and global transition to clean energy, and because it leaves the Coalition and Labor parties with no meaningful plan to meet Australia's Renewable Energy Target and pollution reduction target agreed at the Paris climate conference.
Votes Not passed by a modest majority
Nobody rebelled against their party.
