Bills: National Consumer Credit Protection Amendment (Supporting Economic Recovery) Bill 2020; Second Reading (25 Feb 2021)

“The original question was that this bill be now read a second time. To this the honourable member for Whitlam has moved as an amendment that all words after 'That' be omitted with a view to substituting other words. The question now is that the words proposed to be omitted stand part of the question.”
