Hon Michael Woodhouse
(New Zealand National Party β List Member)
Dr PARMJEET PARMAR (National): I support the Remuneration Authority (Members of Parliament Remuneration) Amendment Bill and commend the bill to the House. Thank you. Read more β
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
(106 Ayes β 14 Noes)
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.
