Description

  • <p class="speaker">Jane Hume</p>
  • <p>I move:</p>
  • <p class="italic">That this bill be now read a third time.</p>
  • The majority voted in favour of a [motion](https://www.openaustralia.org.au/senate/?id=2020-02-24.40.1) to pass the [bill](https://parlinfo.aph.gov.au/parlInfo/search/display/display.w3p;query=Id:legislation/billhome/r6413) in the Senate. Because it had already passed in the House, it will now become law.
  • ### What does this bill do?
  • According to the [bills digest](https://www.aph.gov.au/Parliamentary_Business/Bills_Legislation/bd/bd1920a/20bd075), the bill:
  • > *proposes amendments to superannuation and related tax laws to encourage the recovery of unpaid Superannuation Guarantee (SG) by introducing a temporary amnesty from late payment penalties for employers who disclose that they have underpaid SG in the past.*
  • <p class="speaker">Scott Ryan</p>
  • <p>The question is that the bill be read a third time.</p>
