Bills — Climate Change Bill 2022, Climate Change (Consequential Amendments) Bill 2022; Second Reading- Climate Change Bill 2022, Climate Change (Consequential Amendments) Bill 2022 - Second Reading - One Nation second reading amendment
Description
<p class="speaker">Sue Lines</p><p>I believe, Senator Roberts, you foreshadowed a second reading amendment. Do you wish to move that?</p>-
- The majority voted against an [amendment](https://www.openaustralia.org.au/senate/?id=2022-09-08.10.2) to the usual second reading motion, "*that the bills be read a second time.*" To read a bill a [second time](https://peo.gov.au/understand-our-parliament/how-parliament-works/bills-and-laws/making-a-law-in-the-australian-parliament/) is to agree with its main idea. Because this vote failed, the original motion will remain unchanged.
- This amendment as introduced by Queensland Senator [Malcolm Roberts](https://theyvoteforyou.org.au/people/senate/queensland/malcolm_roberts) (One Nation).
