Motions - Climate Change - Don't let a vote happen

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.

No

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 disagreeing with a motion introduced by Grayndler MP Anthony Albanese (Labor), which means the motion failed. The motion was to suspend the usual procedural rules of parliament - known as standing orders - in order to let another vote happen.

Motion text

That so much as standing orders be suspended as would prevent the Leader of the Opposition moving the following motion immediately—

That the House of Representatives supports a legislated target of net zero emissions by 2050.
