- The majority voted in favour of a [motion](https://www.openaustralia.org.au/senate/?gid=2022-11-30.173.1) "*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.
