The Deputy Speaker

Agriculture and Food Safety Legislation Amendment Bill 2024

Second reading

Debate resumed on motion of Ros Spence:

That this bill be now read a second time.

And Emma Kealy’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 conducts stakeholder consultation on a definition of ‘good repute’ and a right of appeal for seafood licensees prior to the suspension of their seafood licence.’

The DEPUTY SPEAKER: The minister has moved that this bill be now read a second time. The member for Lowan has moved a reasoned amendment to this motion. She has proposed to omit all the words after ‘That’ and replace them with the words which are 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 Lowan should vote no.
