The majority voted in favour of a motion to agree with the bill. This means they can now decide on whether to read the bill a third time and therefore pass the bill.
What is the bill's main idea
According to the bills digest, the bill was introduced with the Agriculture (Biosecurity Protection) Levies Bill 2024 (Levies Bill) and the Agriculture (Biosecurity Protection) Levies and Charges Collection Bill 2024 (Collection Bill). Together, they:
impose new agricultural biosecurity protection levies and charges (BPL) which will be payable by certain producers of agricultural, forestry and fisheries products within Australia; and to authorise their collection to help fund the costs of biosecurity activities at the border to prevent pest and disease incursions into Australia.
The Agriculture (Biosecurity Protection) Charges Bill 2024 "deals with the imposition of a new set of biosecurity protection charges that are duties of customs, and for related purposes."
