Fair Work (Registered Organisations) Amendment (Withdrawal from Amalgamations) Bill 2020 - Second Reading - Keep second reading motion unchanged
Passed by a large majority
No rebellions 37% attendance
Division last edited 15th Jan 2021 by mackay staff
The majority voted against an amendment introduced by NSW Senator Mehreen Faruqi, which means it failed. The amendment would have added the words set out below to the usual second reading motion "that the bill be read a second time" (parliamentary jargon for agreeing with the main idea of the bill).
At the end of the motion, add: ", but the Senate:
(a) notes that the Fair Work (Registered Organisations) Amendment (Withdrawal from Amalgamations) Bill 2020 was introduced, debated and passed through the House of Representatives on the same day, Wednesday 9 December;
(b) further notes there is no urgent reason for the Bill to be rushed through Parliament;
(c) recognises the Bill may have implications for all unions and Australian workers and should not be rushed through without proper scrutiny; and
(d) refers the Fair Work (Registered Organisations) Amendment (Withdrawal from Amalgamations) Bill 2020 to the Education and Employment Legislation Committee for inquiry and report by 4 February 2021".
Nobody rebelled against their party.
