Voting — Correction—Appropriation (2014/15 Estimates) Bill

As previously advised to the Clerk, I seek the leave of the House to amend a New Zealand First vote.

💬 Mr DEPUTY SPEAKER: In relation to which vote?

I seek leave for the vote on the second reading of the Appropriation (2014/15 Estimates) Bill, and the amendment proposed thereto, to be recorded in the Journals as follows—

💬 Mr DEPUTY SPEAKER: We will put the leave now. I just needed to know what you were doing, and whether it was pertinent to the vote we had just taken or not. The House needed to know, so now that we know, we will put the leave. Is there anyone opposed to that course of action? There appears to be none. Leave is granted. The member may now determine to the House the action that she wishes.

Thank you, Mr Deputy Speaker. I seek leave for the vote on the second reading of the Appropriation (2014/15 Estimates) Bill, and the amendment proposed thereto, to be recorded in the Journals as follows: on the question that the amendment be agreed to, New Zealand First—6 votes for the Ayes. On the question that the Appropriation (2014/15 Estimates) Bill be read a second time, New Zealand First—6 votes for the Noes.

Does that change the outcome of the vote?

💬 Barbara Stewart: No.

Oh, it is just recorded in the Journals. I see. Right, are members clear? This is just the intention recorded in the Journals. Leave is sought for that purpose. Is there anyone opposed? There is not. It will be recorded.
