“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 a motion to agree with the bill and so stop considering proposed amendments. Because this vote was successful, our MPs will stop discussing the bill in detail and instead now decide on whether to pass the bill in the House of Representatives.

What does this bill do?

According to the bills homepage, this bill:

Amends the Migration Act 1958 to: require non-citizens who are on a removal pathway and have exhausted all avenues to remain in Australia to cooperate with steps taken for the purpose of arranging their lawful removal from Australia; and make minor and technical amendments.
