House of RepresentativesWednesday 5 February 2025

Criminal Code Amendment (Hate Crimes) Bill 2024

Mr BANDT (Melbourne—Leader of the Australian Greens) (20:00): I thank the minister for doing that. I genuinely do. Hopefully, we'll be in a position to, and have enough time to, consider these overnight.

We've certainly made the point today in our contributions that a number of amendments that have arisen out of the Senate inquiry are amendments that, in principle, we support. Because these have only been made available in the chamber now, we want to test that that's what they are, and so, again, I would ask that the question be recorded as being unresolved on this.

I do appreciate what the minister has done, and, in the same spirit, we do want to see amendments that reflect the Senate report getting passed. Question unresolved. The DEPUTY SPEAKER ( Ms Claydon ): As the question is unresolved, in accordance with standing order 188 the question will now be included in the Federation Chamber's report back to the House on the bill.
