Text recorded with this division

David Pocock

I move paragraphs (a) and (b) as circulated, to try give the crossbench a bit more time on these bills:

At the end of the motion, add:

"but, in respect of

(a) the Electoral Legislation Amendment (Electoral Reform) Bill 2024, the provisions of the bill be referred immediately to the Finance and Public Administration Legislation Committee for inquiry and report by 3 March 2025; and

(b) the provisions of the Scams Prevention Framework Bill 2024, the Economics Legislation Committee report by 3 February 2025."

Andrew McLachlan

The question before the Senate is that paragraphs (a) and (b) of the amendment moved by Senator Pocock be agreed to.

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.
