Now, we'll move to part (b) of Senator Ruston's amendment.
Anne Ruston
I move:
At the end of the motion, add " and the provisions of the Treasury Laws Amendment (Building a Stronger and Fairer Super System) Bill 2026 and the Superannuation (Building a Stronger and Fairer Super System) Imposition Bill 2026 be referred immediately to the Economics Legislation Committee for inquiry and report by 31 March 2026".
At the last election, Australians were not presented with this policy—

Senator Ruston, sadly, the time for debating this has expired, so I have to put the amendment without debate. The question is that part (b) of the amendment standing in the name of Senator Duniam and moved by Senator Ruston to the motion that the selection of bills committee report be adopted be agreed to.
This is the question as put in the chamber, with the name of the member who spoke before the vote. It isn't a summary of the bill or motion.
