Title
Description
-
- The majority voted against an [amendment](https://www.openaustralia.org.au/debates/?id=2023-11-16.3.2) 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). This means that original second reading motion will remain as it is.

- >
- > *(2) the Minister has admitted in his own public comments that this bill will add complexity to an already complex workplace relations system, and increase prices for consumers for everyday services they have come to rely on;*
- >

- >
- > *(4) the bill does not assist Australian businesses to hire more people, and just ticks off even more items on the unions wish list including new right of entry laws and new union delegate rights;*
