Combatting Antisemitism, Hate and Extremism (Firearms and Customs Laws) Bill 2026

Ms ALDRED (Monash) (10:29): I cannot support this legislation, the Combatting Antisemitism, Hate and Extremism (Firearms and Customs Laws) Bill 2026, which punishes responsible gun owners, sporting shooters and farmers in my electorate of Monash. It is bad legislation and it does nothing to address the real issues that, as a federal parliament, we should be focused on.

The SPEAKER: Order! Under the terms of the resolution passed unanimously by the House yesterday, the second reading is concluding no later than 10.30. It being 10.30, I shall now put the question to the House that the bill be read a second time.

Mr Katter: Mr Speaker, do I have the right to move an amendment? The SPEAKER: No. Resume your seat, Member for Kennedy.

We shall get to consideration in detail after we put the second reading, which I am doing now. The question before the House is that the bill be read a second time.
