“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 introduced by Queensland Senator Anthony Chisholm (Labor):

That so much of the standing orders be suspended as would prevent me from moving an amendment to the motion.

Standing orders are the usual procedural rules of parliament.
