Social Security and Other Legislation Amendment (Technical Changes No. 2) Bill 2025

The ACTING DEPUTY PRESIDENT ( Senator Marielle Smith ) (10:50): The question before us is that the second reading amendment moved by Senator Allman-Payne be agreed to. The noes have it. Senator Shoebridge: It's my fault—I wasn't following what the matter before the house was.

Can you just advise what the previous vote was on? The ACTING DEPUTY PRESIDENT: The question that I just put to the chamber was that the second reading amendment moved by Senator Allman-Payne be agreed to. There were no voices for the ayes.

Senator Shoebridge: It's my fault for not paying attention. I didn't understand that my colleague's second reading amendment was before the chamber. Could I ask that the question be recommitted?

It may be that my colleague might seek leave to speak to it. The ACTING DEPUTY PRESIDENT: Senator Shoebridge, I will put the question again. The question before us is that the second reading amendment moved by Senator Allman-Payne be agreed to.
