Help to Buy (Commonwealth Powers) Bill 2025
Second reading
Debate resumed on motion of Danny Pearson:
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 ‘, noting the contrasting position of the two major federal political parties on this policy, this house refuses to read this bill a second time until the outcome of the federal election is determined.’
The 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 that appear 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
Motion agreed to.
