Transport Legislation Amendment Bill 2025
Second reading
Debate resumed on motion of Gabrielle Williams:
That this bill be now read a second time.
And Sam Groth’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 publishes a comprehensive privacy impact assessment relating to the introduction and retention of audio recording, seeks legal advice about the bill’s compatibility with the Surveillance Devices Act 1999, and ensures that appropriate privacy, data security, and legislative consistency safeguards are put in place.’
The SPEAKER: The minister has moved that the bill be now read a second time. The member for Nepean 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 member for Nepean should vote no.
