26th Jun 2024, 10:46 AM – Senate Therapeutic Goods and Other Legislation Amendment (Vaping Reforms) Bill 2024 - Second Reading - Measures to determine success or failure
Summary
EditThe majority voted against an amendment introduced by South Australian Senator Anne Ruston (Liberal), which means it failed. It would have added the words below to the usual second reading motion, which is "that the bill be read a second time" (parliamentary jargon for agreeing with the main idea of the bill).
Amendment text
At the end of the motion, add “, but the Senate calls on the Government to:
(a) provide definitive and objective measures on what it considers constitutes the success or failure of this bill; and
(b) if these measures are not met, move to alternative regulatory models such as allowing vaping products to be sold in general retail”.
