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

What was decided

The majority voted in favour of a motion introduced by New South Welsh Senator Lee Rhiannon (Greens), which means it passed and the documents will need to be supplied.
