Vote: Bills β Gambling Amendment Bill (No 3)
β Third Reading
π³οΈ That the Gambling Amendment Bill (No 3) be now read a third time
Dr PARMJEET PARMAR (National): Thank you for the opportunity to speak on the Gambling Amendment Bill (No 3). I am not on the select committee that considered this bill, the Government Administration Committee, so it is a great opportunity for me to...
Third Reading β this is the last vote a bill needs to
pass before it's sent off to become law. Earlier votes (first reading, second reading, and
any votes on amendments along the way) decide what the bill looks like and whether it
keeps moving forward, but this is the one that actually decides whether it happens at all.
β Passed by a large majority
(91 Ayes β 28 Noes β 1 Absent)
Hansard didn't name individual MPs for this vote, only how each party voted overall, so
there's no per-member breakdown to show here.
