Division

The majority voted in favour of a [motion](https://www.openaustralia.org.au/senate/?id=2023-11-30.9.1) introduced by South Australian Senator [Penny Wong](https://theyvoteforyou.org.au/people/senate/sa/penny_wong) (Labor), which means it succeeded. This means the parliament will now deal with the remaining questions about the [Water Amendment (Restoring Our Rivers) Bill 2023](https://www.aph.gov.au/Parliamentary_Business/Bills_Legislation/Bills_Search_Results/Result?bId=r7076) immediately. ### Motion text > *That—* > > *(a) the questions on all remaining stages of the Water Amendment (Restoring Our Rivers) Bill 2023 be put immediately; and* > > *(b) paragraph (a) operate as a limitation of debate under standing order 142.* #### Error in this entry Senator [David Van](https://theyvoteforyou.org.au/people/senate/victoria/david_van) is currently showing up as a rebel in this division (as of 31 May 2024). However, this is an error. Senator Van became an Independent senator on 14 September 2023, so was no longer part of the Liberal Party during this vote.

Senate, 2023-11-30. affirmative: ayes 34, noes 27.
