I present a supplementary explanatory memorandum to the bill and seek leave of the House to move government amendments (1) to (4), as circulated, together.

Leave granted.

I move:

(1) Schedule 4, item 2, page 14 (after line 16), after the definition of Indigenous Land and Sea Corporation, insert:

Indigenous Land and Sea Corporation Board has the same meaning as in the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Act 2005.

(2) Schedule 4, page 14 (after line 20), after item 3, insert:

3A Section 4 (definition of Indigenous Land Corporation Board )

Repeal the definition.

(3) Schedule 4, page 16 (after line 24), at the end of the Schedule, add:

22 Paragraphs 35A(2 ) ( a), (b) and (c)

Omit "Indigenous Land Corporation Board" (wherever occurring), substitute "Indigenous Land and Sea Corporation Board".

(4) Schedule 4, page 16, at the end of the Schedule, add (after proposed item 22):

23 Subsection 51A(1)

Omit "Indigenous Land Corporation", substitute "Indigenous Land and Sea Corporation".

I would like to thank honourable members for their contribution to the debate on the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Land and Sea Future Fund (Consequential Amendments) Bill 2018. The Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Land and Sea Future Fund (Consequential Amendments) Bill will enable the effective operation of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Land and Sea Future Fund from commencement. The government has four amendments to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Land and Sea Future Fund (Consequential Amendments) Bill. This consequential amendments bill accompanies a bill for an act to establish the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Land and Sea Future Fund. Among other things, this consequential amendments bill provides for amendments to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Land and Sea Future Fund Bill 2018 that are contingent on separate legislation that, if enacted, will rename the Indigenous Land Corporation the Indigenous Land and Sea Corporation. Amendments to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Land and Sea Future Fund Bill 2018 will insert references to the Indigenous Land Corporation board in the bill. These amendments to the consequential amendments bill will replace those references with references to the Indigenous Land and Sea Corporation board if legislation to change the name is enacted. I commend the amendments and the bill to the House.

Question agreed to.

Bill, as amended, agreed to.
