No

Not recorded voting

“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 to suspend the usual procedural rules (known as standing orders) in order to let ACT Senator Katy Gallagher (Labor) introduced a motion.

Amendment text

That so much of standing orders be suspended as would prevent me moving an amendment to the motion.
