My question is to the Prime Minister. The UN will shortly decide Australia's request to delist 74,000 hectares of Tasmanian World Heritage forests. Regardless of the government's position, will you respect the World Heritage Committee's final decision and not attempt any unprecedented unilateral withdrawal from the World Heritage framework? And before taking any final action, will you at least give me time to bring a petition to the parliament next week in support of maintaining the listing?
