Sue Lines

I remind senators that yesterday evening two votes were deferred, as listed at item 16 on today's Order of Business, as well as a vote relating to the Home Affairs Legislation Amendment (2025 Measures No. 1) Bill 2025. I understand it suits the convenience of the Senate to hold those votes now. I will deal first with the motion moved by Senator Hanson concerning the restoration of a bill to the Notice Paper and its reference to the Legal and Constitutional Affairs Legislation Committee. The question is that the motion 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.
