Text recorded with this division

David Pocock

by leave—I move:

That paragraph (a) of the motion be amended to remove:

(i) Migration Amendment (Removal and Other Measures) Bill 2024

(vii) Financial Framework (Supplementary Powers) Amendment 2024

(ix) Digital ID Bill 2023

Digital ID (Transitional and Consequential Provisions) Bill 2023

Penny Wong

I understand that some senators may wish to vote differently on each part of the amendment. I might be wrong but, if that's the case, it might be best to put those separately.

Nick McKim

Could I indicate that the Greens wish to vote separately on the digital ID legislation, and we ask that it be put separately.

Sue Lines

In the interests of the chamber I will put all three parts separately. The question is that (i) Migration Amendment (Removal and Other Measures) Bill 2024 be agreed to.

Question agreed to.

I will now put the question on the second part of the amendment, (vii) Financial Framework (Supplementary Powers) Amendment 2024. The question is this part be agreed to.

Question negatived.

Sarah Hanson-Young

by leave—I would like to indicate the Greens support that part of the amendment moved by Senator Pocock.

Sue Lines

Thank you, Senator Hanson-Young.

This is the question as put in the chamber, with the name of the member who spoke before the vote. It isn't a summary of the bill or motion.
