TAXATION (COST OF LIVING PAYMENTS) BILL
In Committee
Debate resumed.
Clauses 1 and 2
CHAIRPERSON (Hon Jenny Salesa): Good morning, members, as we recognise Pink Shirt Day today.
Members, the committee is resumed for further consideration of the Taxation (Cost of Living Payments) Bill. I remind members that they’re able to participate remotely. If you’re on Zoom and want to take a call, please type “call” into the chat. You should also use the chat if you’d like to raise a point of order. If we receive new tabled amendments, I’ll advise members so that they can refresh the House papers page to see the new amendment.
Finally, it’d be helpful for members to ask multiple questions, if they have them, of the member in charge during the call.
Members, before we move to consideration of clauses 1 and 2, last night during the votes of closure Part 1 and Part 1 stand part, the votes were recorded incorrectly. The correct vote on both votes was 67 votes in favour, 42 votes against, and 10 votes in abstention.
Members, we come now to our final debate, clauses 1 and 2, which is the debate on the title and commencement.
