Economics References Committee

Reference

Noes in the majority

This says only which side won the vote, because what Aye and No meant here depends on the exact question put in the chamber.

“Not recorded voting” is everyone eligible who isn't recorded as Aye or No, for example absent, paired, or presiding.

No plain-English summary has been written for this division yet. The official title above is the most reliable description of the question.

Maria Kovacic

At the request of Senator Bragg, I move:

That the following matter be referred to the Economics References Committee for inquiry and report by 25 November 2026:

Foreign currency loans (FCLs) issued by Australian banks, with particular reference to:

(a) the issuance of FCLs in the 1980s;

(b) the economic and consumer basis for FCLs;

(d) responses to any complaints relating to FCLs;

(e) compensation arrangements;

(f) any outstanding claims for compensation;

(g) historical laws governing FCLs and their enforcement;

(h) law reform opportunities; and

(i) any other related matters.

The question is that business of the Senate No. 1, standing in the name of Senator Bragg, 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.

Both bars use the same scale: number of members.
