Bob Brown (Tasmania, Australian Greens) Share this | Hansard source

I notice the coalition interjecting in defence of Peter Garrett. They can do that, but I am here on behalf of the Australian Greens to defend Australia’s magnificent biodiversity and to call on this government not only to do its job but to uphold the law, the Protection of Biodiversity Conservation Act, not just in spirit but in action. That is something that this Rudd government has manifestly failed to do.

Question put:

That the motion (Senator Bob Brown’s) be agreed to.
