1st Jun 2021, 4:43 PM – Representatives Private Health Insurance Amendment (Income Thresholds) Bill 2021 - Second Reading - Keep usual second reading motion unchanged
Summary
EditThe majority voted in favour of keeping the usual second reading motion unchanged. The usual second reading motion is "that the bill be read a second time", which is parliamentary jargon for agreeing with the main idea of the bill.
This vote took place after the MP for Hindmarsh Mark Butler (Labor) proposed the following amendment.
Amendment text
That all words after "That" be omitted with a view to substituting the following words:
"whilst not declining to give the bill a second reading, the House urges the Government to better protect Australians' health during the pandemic and deliver a more sustainable, equitable, and effective health care system"
