Consideration of Legislation

Tuesday, 3 March 2026 House of Representatives

Anne Aly

Anne Aly Cowan, Australian Labor Party, Minister for International Development

I move:

That so much of the standing and sessional orders be suspended as would prevent:

(1) government business order of the day No. 4, Treasury Laws Amendment (Building a Stronger and Fairer Super System) Bill 2026, being debated in cognate with government business order of the day No. 5, Superannuation (Building a Stronger and Fairer Super System) Imposition Bill 2026; and

(2) any variation to this arrangement being made only on a motion moved by a Minister.

Cameron Caldwell

Cameron Caldwell Fadden, Liberal National Party, Shadow Assistant Minister for Housing

This is a regrettable step by the government. We know that these are extremely consequential bills.
