Title

  • Official Development Assistance Multilateral Replenishment Obligations (Special Appropriation) Bill 2019 - Third Reading - Pass the bill

Description

  • <p class="speaker">Scott Ryan</p>
  • <p>No amendments have been circulated. Does any senator require a committee stage? If not, I shall call the minister to move the third reading.</p>
  • <p class="speaker">Marise Payne</p>
  • The majority voted in favour of a [motion](https://www.openaustralia.org.au/senate/?id=2020-06-10.13.1) to pass the bill. In other words, they voted to read it for a [third time](https://peo.gov.au/understand-our-parliament/how-parliament-works/bills-and-laws/making-a-law-in-the-australian-parliament/). Because it had already been read for a third time in the House of Representatives, it will now become law.
  • ### What does the bill do?
  • The bill was [introduced to do the following](https://parlinfo.aph.gov.au/parlInfo/search/display/display.w3p;query=Id:legislation/billhome/r6437):

  • <p>I move:</p>
