Title
Bills — National Disability Insurance Scheme Amendment (Strengthening Banning Orders) Bill 2020; Second Reading
- National Disability Insurance Scheme Amendment (Strengthening Banning Orders) Bill 2020 - Second Reading - Implement recommendations
Description
<p class="speaker">Stirling Griff</p>
<p>I move the second reading amendment on sheet 1121 standing in my name:</p>
<p class="italic">At the end of the motion, add: ", but the Senate:</p>
- The majority voted against an [amendment](https://www.openaustralia.org.au/senate/?gid=2020-11-12.24.1) to the usual second reading motion introduced by South Australian Senator [Stirling Griff](https://theyvoteforyou.org.au/people/senate/sa/stirling_griff) (Centre Alliance), which means it failed. The usual [second reading motion](https://peo.gov.au/understand-our-parliament/how-parliament-works/bills-and-laws/making-a-law-in-the-australian-parliament/) is "*that the bill be read a second time*," which is parliamentary jargon for agreeing with the main idea of the bill.
- ### Motion text
- > *At the end of the motion, add: ", but the Senate:*
- >
- > *(a) notes the recommendations made by the Hon Alan Robertson SC in the 'Independent review of the adequacy of the regulation of the supports and services provided to Ms Ann-Marie Smith, an NDIS participant, who died on 6 April 2020', from abuse and neglect; and*
