Description

The majority voted in favour of a [http://www.openaustralia.org/debate/?id=2008-06-05.100.1 motion] "That the words proposed to be omitted (Mr Dutton’s [http://www.openaustralia.org/debate/?id=2008-06-03.5.1 amendment]) stand part of the question", which means that the words will remain as they are.
Liberal MP [http://publicwhip-rails.openaustraliafoundation.org.au/mp.php?mpn=Peter_Dutton&mpc=Dickson&house=representatives Peter Dutton] had proposed to amend the original second reading motion "That this bill be now read a [http://www.peo.gov.au/learning/fact-sheets/making-a-law.html second time]" with the following: "That all words after “That” be omitted with a view to substituting the following words: “the House declines to give the bill a second reading and rejects in particular the obligation that fuel prices be fixed for 24 hours.”"[1]
Liberal MP [http://publicwhip-rails.openaustraliafoundation.org.au/mp.php?mpn=Peter_Dutton&mpc=Dickson&house=representatives Peter Dutton] had proposed to amend the original second reading motion "That this bill be now read a [http://www.peo.gov.au/learning/fact-sheets/making-a-law.html second time]" with the following:[1] ''That all words after “That” be omitted with a view to substituting the following words: “the House declines to give the bill a second reading and rejects in particular the obligation that fuel prices be fixed for 24 hours.”''
Because the majority wanted the words of the original second reading to remain unchanged, it could now be put.[2]
''Background to the bill''
This [http://www.aph.gov.au/Parliamentary_Business/Bills_Legislation/Bills_Search_Results/Result?bId=r3019 bill] was introduced along with the [http://www.aph.gov.au/Parliamentary_Business/Bills_Legislation/Bills_Search_Results/Result?bId=r3020 National Fuelwatch (Empowering Consumers) (Consequential Amendments) Bill 2008] to establish a National Fuelwatch Scheme, which would be created and administered by by the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC).[3] The National Fuelwatch Scheme would require petrol retailers "to notify the ACCC of their next day’s fuel prices by 2 pm each day and maintain this notified price for a 24-hour period from 6 am the next day".[4]
The National Fuelwatch Scheme was proposed in response to an ACCC inquiry into the price of unleaded petrol, which found that:
* there is an imbalance in fuel pricing information between petrol retailers and consumers at the retail level; and
* consumers' capacity to take advantage of the lowest prices is limited by intraday fuel price changes (sometimes as often as three or four times per day).[5]
