Sue Lines

We have a deferred vote on Senator Faruqi's second reading amendment. We'll deal with that now. The question is that the second reading amendment moved by Senator Faruqi on sheet No. 4109 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.
