Description
<p class="speaker">David Pocock</p><p>I move my second reading amendment:</p>-
- The majority voted against a second reading [amendment](https://www.openaustralia.org.au/senate/?gid=2024-08-21.37.1) introduced by ACT Senator [David Pocock](https://theyvoteforyou.org.au/people/senate/act/david_pocock) (Independent), which means it failed. This amendment would have added the words below 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).

- >>
- >> *(ii) Australians have lost over $8 million to scams linked to online investment trading platforms, often using deepfakes,*
- >>
- >> *(iii) the Australian Electoral Commissioner has warned that Australia is not ready for its first artificial intelligence election that is coming within the next 12 months,*
- >>
- >> *(iv) deepfakes of Australian politicians have already been used, and*
- >>
- >> *(v) the Commonwealth Electoral Amendment (Voter Protections in Political Advertising) Bill 2023, introduced by the Member for Warringah on 13 November 2023, would ban the use of deepfakes in political advertising; and*
- >
- > *(b) calls on the Government to:*
