Title
Business — Consideration of Legislation- Home Affairs Legislation Amendment (Miscellaneous Measures) Bill 2018 - Second Reading - Commencement
Description
<p class="speaker">Scott Ryan</p><p>The question now is that the amendments on sheets JC580, JC574, JC575, JC576, JC577, JC578 and JC579, circulated by the government, be agreed to. Senator Bernardi.</p> <p class="speaker">Cory Bernardi</p><p>Mr President, as these amendments deal with different substantive issues in relation to home affairs and border protection, I request that they be put individually.</p> <p class="speaker">Scott Ryan</p><p>Are you indicating that you're voting separately on the amendments, Senator Bernardi?</p> <p class="speaker">Cory Bernardi</p><p>Indeed I am.</p> <p class="speaker">Scott Ryan</p><p>Senator McKim, on a point of order?</p> <p class="speaker">Nick McKim</p><p>Mr President, you just read through a number of amendments. My point of order is: could Senator Bernardi confirm that he will be voting differently on all of them, and whether or not there is any opportunity to form a subgroup of those amendments so that we can vote on some of them together.</p> <p class="speaker">Scott Ryan</p><p>Senator Bernardi.</p> <p class="speaker">Cory Bernardi</p><p>I would love to form a subcommittee and discuss this further, and reconsider it in the new year! As it stands, I'd love to run through them.</p> <p class="speaker">Scott Ryan</p><p>No, Senator Bernardi, this is not a chance for debate.</p> <p class="speaker">Cory Bernardi</p><p>Sheet JC580 relates to the commencement—</p> <p class="speaker">Scott Ryan</p><p>Senator Bernardi, please resume your seat. Senator McKim, I take senators' requests at face value on this. Senators who do not reflect different votes will be considered out of order, and I will treat subsequent requests through that prism. So far today, when people have made the requests, different votes have been recorded. I will put the amendments on sheet JC580, moved in the name of the government:</p><p><i>Government's circulated amendments</i></p><p class="italic">(1) Clause 2, page 1 (line 8) to page 2 (line 7), omit the clause, substitute:</p><p class="italic">2 Commencement</p><p class="italic">(1) Each provision of this Act specified in column 1 of the table commences, or is taken to have commenced, in accordance with column 2 of the table. Any other statement in column 2 has effect according to its terms.</p><p class="italic">Note: This table relates only to the provisions of this Act as originally enacted. It will not be amended to deal with any later amendments of this Act.</p><p class="italic">(2) Any information in column 3 of the table is not part of this Act. Information may be inserted in this column, or information in it may be edited, in any published version of this Act.</p><p class="italic"> <i>[commencement]</i></p><p>The question is that the amendments on sheet JC580 be agreed to.</p> -
