“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 ACT Senator David Pocock (Independent), which means it failed.

Motion text

That, in the opinion of the Senate, the following is a matter of urgency:

The Government must substantially increase funding for threatened species in the May budget and introduce comprehensive reform of our national environmental laws in line with the commitment to no new extinctions. The Government initially committed to introducing the reform by mid-2024, and must introduce the package by October 2024.
