Text recorded with this division
Anne Aly
I move:
That so much of the standing and sessional orders be suspended as would prevent:
(1) government business order of the day No. 4, Treasury Laws Amendment (Building a Stronger and Fairer Super System) Bill 2026, being debated in cognate with government business order of the day No. 5, Superannuation (Building a Stronger and Fairer Super System) Imposition Bill 2026; and
(2) any variation to this arrangement being made only on a motion moved by a Minister.
Cameron Caldwell
This is a regrettable step by the government. We know that these are extremely consequential bills.
Steve Georganas
Order. The member will resume his seat for a moment. The Chief Government Whip?
Joanne Ryan
I move:
That the question be now put.
Milton Dick
The question is that the question be now put.
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.
