Building Legislation Amendment (Domestic Building Insurance New Offences) Bill 2023
Second reading
Debate resumed on motion of Sonya Kilkenny:
That this bill be now read a second time.
And James Newbury’s amendment:
That all the words after ‘That’ be omitted and replaced with the words ‘this house refuses to read this bill a second time until the government commits to comprehensively protect victims and their families from rogue behaviour from a small minority of dodgy builders and the potential loss of their deposit if a building company collapses’.
The DEPUTY SPEAKER: The minister has moved that the bill be now read a second time. The member for Brighton has moved a reasoned amendment to this motion. He has proposed to omit all the words after ‘That’ and replace them with the words on the notice paper. The question is:
That the words proposed to be omitted stand part of the question.
Those supporting the reasoned amendment by the member for Brighton should vote no.
Assembly divided on question:
Third reading
