17th Nov 2023, 9:36 AM – Senate Crimes and Other Legislation Amendment (Omnibus No. 2) Bill 2023 - Third Reading - Pass the bill
Summary
EditThe majority voted in favour of a motion to agree with passing the bill in the Senate (technically known as giving the bill a third reading). Since the bill was already passed in the House of Representative, the bill will now become law.
What is the bill's main idea?
According to the bill homepage, the bill will:
clarify the Attorney-General’s duty to make, or refuse to make, a parole order after the non-parole period has ended; [...] and enhance import controls on substances that are commonly used as illicit drugs and precursors but which also have legitimate uses in industry (dual-use substances). [It also] validates things done in reliance on certain authorisations or determinations by the Australian Criminal Intelligence Commission Board.
