Climate Change (Consequential Amendments) Bill 2022

Amendment

A vote on changing the text of a bill or motion, not on passing it.

Official title
Climate Change (Consequential Amendments) Bill 2022 - Consideration of Senate Message - Agree with Senate amendment

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” is everyone eligible who isn't recorded as Aye or No, for example absent, paired, or presiding. 1 voted differently from most of their party.

What was decided

The majority voted in favour of a motion to agree with an amendment made by the Senate. This means that that amendment - which relates to the prescribed functions of ARENA - will now be part of the bill.

This vote means that all parts of the bill have now been agreed to by both the House and the Senate, which in turn means that the bill will now become law.

Rebellion

One MP crossed the floor, with Bass MP Bridget Archer (Liberal) voting 'Yes' against the rest of her party, who voted 'No'.

Amendment text

(1) Schedule 1, page 4 (after line 6), after item 2, insert:

2A At the end of section 8

Add:

Note: Paragraph (f) allows additional functions to be prescribed related to renewable energy technologies as well as electrification technologies or energy efficiency technologies.
