Title
Bills — Treasury Laws Amendment (Electric Car Discount) Bill 2022; Second Reading- Treasury Laws Amendment (Electric Car Discount) Bill 2022 - Second Reading - EV car batteries
Description
<p class="speaker">Gerard Rennick</p><p>I move:</p>-
- The majority voted against a [second reading amendment](https://www.openaustralia.org.au/senate/?gid=2022-11-24.191.1) introduced by Queensland Senator [Gerard Rennick](https://theyvoteforyou.org.au/people/senate/queensland/gerard_rennick) (Liberal), which means it failed.
- ### What are second reading amendments?
- Second reading amendments like these don't make legal changes themselves, but instead represent the will of the Senate. They add words to the usual second reading motion, which is "*that the bill be [read a second time](https://peo.gov.au/understand-our-parliament/how-parliament-works/bills-and-laws/making-a-law-in-the-australian-parliament/)*", which is parliamentary jargon for agreeing with the main idea of the bill.
- ### Motion text
