Earlier today a division occurred on the second reading of the Family Tax Benefit (Tighter Income Test) Bill 2014. The division was called for by two voices, as required by standing order 100(1), but the result of the division was one aye and 45 noes, meaning that one of the voices calling for the division did not vote in accordance with their voice vote. I remind senators that standing order 100(3) requires that a senator shall vote in a division in accordance with that senator's vote by voice.
