“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 an amendment introduced by NSW Senator Mehreen Faruqi (Greens), which means it failed. The amendments would have introduced a sunsetting clause for the mandatory minimum sentences.

Amendment text

(1) Schedule 2, page 20 (after line 29), after item 7, insert:

7A Sunsetting of mandatory minimum sentences

Without limiting item 7, the amendments of the Crimes Act 1914 made by this Schedule apply in relation to a conviction that occurs on or before 31 December 2026.
