  • <p>The question is that the motion moved by Senator Wong be agreed to.</p>
  • The majority voted in favour of a [motion](https://www.openaustralia.org.au/senate/?id=2023-11-30.9.1) introduced by South Australian Senator [Penny Wong](https://theyvoteforyou.org.au/people/senate/sa/penny_wong) (Labor), which means it succeeded.

  • #### Error in this entry
  • Senator [David Van](https://theyvoteforyou.org.au/people/senate/victoria/david_van) is currently showing up as a rebel in this division (as of 31 May 2024). However, this is an error. Senator Van became an Independent senator on 14 September 2023, so was no longer part of the Liberal Party during this vote.
