Description

  • <p class="speaker">Sue Lines</p>
  • <p>Pursuant to the order agreed to earlier today, I am required to put the question that the Senate not insist on its amendment to which the House has disagreed.</p>
  • The majority voted against a [motion](https://www.openaustralia.org.au/senate/?id=2024-05-16.257.1) that the Senate not insist on its [amendment](https://parlinfo.aph.gov.au/parlInfo/search/display/display.w3p;query=Id:legislation/billhome/display.w3p;query=Id%3A%22legislation%2Famend%2Fr7081_amend_11526edf-b602-4a8b-a75b-92628794e8da%22;rec=0) to which the House has disagreed. This means the bill and the amendments will go back to the House of Representatives for them to vote on whether they insist on their disagreement or agree to accept the amendments.
