“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 NSW Senator Mehreen Faruqi (Greens), which means it failed. It was a motion to disallow (meaning, stopping it from being law) the Export Control (Animals) Amendment (Northern Hemisphere Summer Prohibition) Rules 2022.

Senator Faruqi explained that:

The Export Control (Animals) Amendment (Northern Hemisphere Summer Prohibition) Rules 2022 reduces the ban on exporting sheep to Red Sea destinations by two weeks in June, and reduces the ban on exporting sheep to Qatar by 10 days in May.

Motion text

That the Export Control (Animals) Amendment (Northern Hemisphere Summer Prohibition) Rules 2022, made under the Export Control Act 2020, be disallowed [F2022L00537].
