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.

What was decided

The majority voted in favour of an amendment introduced by Victorian Senator Ralph Babet (United Australia Party), which means it will be included in the original motion.

Amendment text

At the end of the motion, add:

"and, in respect of the Public Governance, Performance and Accountability Amendment (Vaccine Indemnity) Bill 2023, the bill be referred immediately to the Finance and Public Administration Legislation Committee for inquiry and report by 18 March 2024"
