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.
- Aye
- 68
- No
- 74
- Not recorded voting
- 9
“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 against a motion introduced by Grayndler MP Anthony Albanese (Labor), which means it failed. The motion would have suspended the usual procedural rules to let a vote happen, something that's known as suspending the standing orders.
