“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 at the request of Victorian Senator James Paterson (Liberal)

Motion text

That there be laid on the table by the Minister representing the Minister for Home Affairs and Minister for Immigration and Multicultural Affairs, by no later than 10 am on Monday, 16 September 2024, a copy of all advice provided by the Department of Home Affairs to the former Minister for Home Affairs, the Honourable Clare O'Neil MP, and the former Minister for Immigration, Citizenship and Multicultural Affairs, the Honourable Andrew Giles MP, relating to the issuance of visas to Palestinians in response to the Israel-Hamas conflict.

No rebellion

Currently, West Australian Senator Fatima Payman (Independent) is showing up as a rebel voter, but this is inaccurate as she is no longer part of the independent senator.
