“Not recorded voting” is everyone eligible who isn't recorded as Aye or No, for example absent, paired, or presiding. 1 voted differently from most of their party.

What was decided

The majority voted against a motion introduced by Queensland Senator Pauline Hanson (One Nation), which means it failed.

The Liberal Party had a very low turnout for this vote and were split. Of the two senators that voted, one was in favour and one against.

Motion text

That, in the opinion of the Senate, the following is a matter of urgency:

The need for the Government to scrap its net-zero emissions target and instead prioritise providing Australian families, farmers, businesses and industry with cheap and reliable energy, to protect jobs, ensure energy security, lower the cost of living and restore Australia's economic competitiveness.
