Division

The majority voted in favour of [amendments](https://www.openaustralia.org.au/debate/?id=2024-09-09.116.1) introduced by Rankin MP [Jim Chalmers](https://theyvoteforyou.org.au/people/representatives/rankin/jim_chalmers) (Labor), which means they will now be part of the bill. ### What do the amendments do? Mr Chalmers [explained that](https://www.openaustralia.org.au/debate/?id=2024-09-09.116.1): > *The five amendments from the government that are before the House are largely about three things. Firstly, they make projects supported by the Future Made in Australia even more transparent. The companies delivering the support will have to publish the value of that and list their beneficiaries each year. Secondly, the amendments will make the sector assessments more rigorous. They will put in legislation the recommendation for Treasury to consult expert bodies when making these assessments, and this will help Treasury consider what impact or benefit individual industries will have on our net zero transformation. Thirdly, they clarify the importance of First Nations Australians participating in and sharing the benefits of our transition to net zero, with an extra community benefit principle ensuring the benefits of projects on those communities are always properly considered. We're also proposing a minor amendment to the omnibus bill to ensure that the Australian Renewable Energy Agency is considered a public authority of the Commonwealth.* ### Amendment texts > *(1) Clause 3, page 4 (after line 28), after subparagraph (c)(iii), insert:* > >> *(iiia) supporting First Nations communities and traditional owners to participate in, and share in the benefits of, the transition to net zero; and* > > *(2) Clause 8, page 10 (after line 22), at the end of subclause (6), add:* > >> *Note: The Commonwealth entities the Secretary may consult with for the purposes of paragraph (a) include (without limitation) the following:* >> >> *(a) the Australian Competition and Consumer Commissio
