  • Treasury Laws Amendment (Energy Price Relief Plan) Bill 2022 - Second Reading - Refer to committee

Description

  • <p class="speaker">Malcolm Roberts</p>
  • <p>by leave&#8212;Acting Deputy President, I ask that my name be recorded as supporting Senator Duniam's second reading amendment.</p>
  • The majority voted against an [amendment](https://www.openaustralia.org.au/senate/?gid=2022-12-15.43.1). It would have added the words below to the usual second reading motion, which is "*That this bill be now read a second time*" (parliamentary jargon for agreeing with the main idea of the bill). It was introduced by West Australian Senator [Michaelia Cash](https://theyvoteforyou.org.au/people/senate/wa/michaelia_cash) (Liberal).
  • ### Amendment text
  • > *At the end of the motion, add ", and Schedule 1 of the bill be referred to the Economics Legislation Committee for inquiry and report by 7 February 2023".*
  • <p class="speaker">Catryna Bilyk</p>
  • <p>That is so done.</p>
  • <p class="speaker">Michaelia Cash</p>
  • <p>I move the second reading amendment on sheet 1789, as circulated in the chamber:</p>
  • <p class="italic">At the end of the motion, add ", and Schedule 1 of the bill be referred to the Economics Legislation Committee for inquiry and report by 7 February 2023".</p>
  • <p class="speaker">Sue Lines</p>
  • <p>The question is that the second reading amendment on sheet 1789 moved by Senator Cash be agreed to.</p>
