Ayes 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

“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 to suspend standing orders, which are the procedural rules of parliament. Because this vote was successful, the vote on whether to pass the bill in the House of Representatives - known as giving it a third reading - will occur straight away.

Motion text

That so much of the standing orders be suspended as would prevent the motion for the third reading being moved without delay.
