Bashed, bloodied and gutted, the final version of The Treasury Laws Amendment (2021 Measures No 5) Bill 2021 got through the House of Representatives at 4.30pm on Thursday December 1 2021.
However, the committee fell to pieces over the recommendations. The official vote supported the Bill with a couple of minor fiddles. Both the Labor Senators and the Greens produced scathing minority reports, which focused on the Department’s failure to provide evidence for the changes, and to consult.
