Bob Brown (Tasmania, Australian Greens) Share this | Hansard source
I move:
That the Senate—
(a) notes that a series of Australian citizens have been arrested and held in prison in China in recent years without prompt notification to the Australian Government; and
(b) calls on China to fulfil its diplomatic obligation and promptly notify Australia if any Australian citizen is apprehended in the future.
Question negatived.
