Bills — Migration Amendment (Streamlining Visa Processing) Bill 2019; Second Reading- Migration Amendment (Streamlining Visa Processing) Bill 2019 - Second Reading - Stop privatisation
Description
<p class='motion-notice motion-notice-truncated'>Long debate text truncated.</p>- The majority voted against a [motion](https://www.openaustralia.org.au/debates/?id=2019-09-11.32.1) to amend the usual second reading motion, which is "*that the bill be read a [second time](https://www.peo.gov.au/learning/fact-sheets/making-a-law.html)*". Agreeing to read a bill for a second time is the same as agreeing with the main idea of the bill.
