“Not recorded voting” is everyone eligible who isn't recorded as Aye or No, for example absent, paired, or presiding.

Fatima Payman

I move:

That there be laid on the table by the Minister representing the Minister for Communications, by no later than 5 pm on Friday, 12 September 2025, copies of all letters, briefing notes, meeting agendas, meeting invitations, meeting notes, emails and text messages between the Minister for Communications (the minister) and/or her office and the Australian Communications and Media Authority and between the minister and/or her office and the Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development, Communications, Sport and the Arts in relation to the discharge of the Communications Legislation Amendment (Combatting Misinformation and Disinformation) Bill 2024 from the Notice Paper on 25 November 2024, analysis of why the bill failed to earn support in the Senate or in the community and preparations for any future legislation dealing with online misinformation and disinformation.

Sue Lines

The question is that general business notice of motion No. 167, standing in the name of Senator Payman, 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.
