I move:

That this bill be now read a second time.

The Passenger Movement Charge Amendment (Timor Sea Maritime Boundaries Treaty) Bill 2018 complements the Timor Sea Maritime Boundaries Treaty Consequential Amendments Bill 2018.

This bill amends the Passenger Movement Charge Act 1978 by replicating the exemption from passenger movement charge in relation to journeys to an installation in the special regime area.

This package of bills gives effect to the 2018 Maritime Boundaries Treaty between Australia and the Democratic Republic of Timor-Leste.

I commend this bill to the chamber.

Debate adjourned.
