Jenny McAllister

At the request of Senator Chisholm, I move:

That the provisions of paragraphs (5) to (8) of standing order 111 not apply to the following bills, allowing them to be considered during this period of sittings:

Aged Care (Consequential and Transitional Provisions) Bill 2024

Commonwealth Entities (Payment Surcharges) Bill 2024

Commonwealth Entities (Payment Surcharges) (Consequential Provisions and Other Matters) Bill 2024

Commonwealth Entities (Payment Surcharges) Tax (Imposition) Bill 2024.

Midwife Professional Indemnity (Commonwealth Contribution) Scheme Amendment Bill 2024

Migration Amendment (Prohibiting Items in Immigration Detention Facilities) Bill 2024

Online Safety Amendment (Social Media Minimum Age) Bill 2024

Surveillance Legislation (Confirmation of Application) Bill 2024.

Larissa Waters

We wish to vote differently on some of those, so we ask that the question be put separately for the Online Safety Amendment (Social Media Minimum Age) Bill 2024 and the Migration Amendment (Prohibiting Items in Immigration Detention Facilities) Bill 2024.

Catryna Bilyk

The question is that the Aged Care (Consequential and Transitional Provisions) Bill 2024, Midwife Professional Indemnity (Commonwealth Contribution) Scheme Amendment Bill 2024, Commonwealth Entities (Payment Surcharges) Bill 2024, Commonwealth Entities (Payment Surcharges) (Consequential Provisions and Other Matters) Bill 2024, Commonwealth Entities (Payment Surcharges) Tax (Imposition) Bill 2024 and the Surveillance Legislation (Confirmation of Application) Bill 2024 be exempt from the cut-off.

Question agreed to.

The question is that the Online Safety Amendment (Social Media Minimum Age) Bill 2024 and the Migration Amendment (Prohibiting Items in Immigration Detention Facilities) Bill 2024 be exempt from the cut-off.

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.
