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

Text recorded with this division

David Shoebridge

I move:

That the following matter be referred to the Legal and Constitutional Affairs References Committee for inquiry and report by 14 September 2026:

The Australian Government's response to the recommendations of the fourth cycle of the Universal Periodic Review, with particular reference to the adequacy of Australia's response to the review and any related matters.

Sue Lines

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