“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 introduced by NSW Senator Mehreen Faruqi (Greens), which means it failed.

Motion text

That there be laid on the table by the Minister representing the Attorney-General, by no later than 9.30 am on Tuesday, 27 August 2024, all documents, advice and correspondence between any of the organisations listed below and the Australian Human Rights Commission relating to past and current staff of the Australian Human Rights Commission over the last 12 months:

(a) Executive Council of Australian Jewry;

(b) Zionist Federation of Australia;

(c) Australia/Israel and Jewish Affairs Council; and

(d) New South Wales Jewish Board of Deputies.

No rebellion

West Australian Senator Fatima Payman (Independent) is currently showing up as a rebel voter in this division but this is an error, since Senator Payman is no longer part of the Labor Party.
