- The majority voted in favour of a [motion](https://www.openaustralia.org.au/debate/?id=2019-11-28.46.4) to agree with the main idea of the bill. In parliamentary jargon, they voted to read it [for a second time](https://www.peo.gov.au/understand-our-parliament/how-parliament-works/bills-and-laws/making-a-law-in-the-australian-parliament/). This means it can now be discussed in more detail.
- ### What is the bill's main idea?
- According to the [bill homepage](https://parlinfo.aph.gov.au/parlInfo/search/display/display.w3p;query=Id:legislation/billhome/r6413), the bill was introduced to:
- > *provide for a one-off amnesty to encourage employers to self-correct historical superannuation guarantee non compliance; and ... to limit the Commissioner of Taxation’s ability to remit penalties for historical superannuation guarantee non-compliance, where an employer fails to disclose information relevant to their historical superannuation guarantee shortfall.*
