“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 an amendment introduced by Tasmanian Senator Nick McKim (Greens), which means it will be included in the original motion.

Amendment text

At the end of the motion, add:

"and, in respect of the Housing Australia Future Fund Bill 2023 [No. 2], the National Housing Supply and Affordability Council Bill 2023 [No. 2] and the Treasury Laws Amendment (Housing Measures No. 1) Bill 2023 [No. 2], the provisions of the bills be referred immediately to the Economics Legislation Committee for inquiry and report by 24 October 2023".
