“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:

That so much of the standing orders be suspended as would prevent me from moving and debating the motion.

Standing orders are the usual procedural rules of parliament.

In other words, they voted against letting Queensland Senator Larissa Waters (Greens) introduce another motion on the subject of the national gender pay gap.
