The Debate
What different members said when this bill was debated:
Damien Tudehope LIB
“I lead for the Opposition in debate on the Revenue, Mining and Energy Legislation Amendment Bill 2023.”
Chris Rath LIB
“It is with enormous glee that I speak in support of the Revenue, Mining and Energy Legislation Amendment Bill 2023. My only criticism is that the bill does not go far enough. Rather than the splitting up of the Construction, Forestry, Maritime, Mining and Energy Union, perhaps a better amendment would be the abolition of the CFMMEU. But I say that in a rather tongue-in-cheek way.”
Tania Mihailuk IND
“I make a brief contribution to debate on the Revenue, Mining and Energy Legislation Amendment Bill 2023. In the first instance, I congratulate the members of the Mining and Energy Division on now being their own union.”
Courtney Houssos ALP
“Tania Mihailuk. This is an important bill with two parts. There are the somewhat administrative updates, as members have noted in their contributions.”

Second Reading Speech, Revenue, Mining and Energy Legislation Amendment Bill 2023
Mr MICHAEL DALEY, Attorney General — 2023-10-11
The Revenue, Mining and Energy Legislation Amendment Bill 2023 amends a number of Acts and regulations as a result of the Mining and Energy Division of the Construction, Forestry, Maritime, Mining and Energy Union withdrawing from the CFMMEU and becoming a standalone union called the Mining and Energy Union. The bill will address an anomaly in one of the duty exemption provisions and ensure that the Mining and Energy Union can continue to exercise functions under various Acts. At present, certain Acts assign functions to the CFMMEU but it is the Mining and Energy Division which in practice performs these functions. As such, it is necessary to update these references.
