I move:
That the Senate—
(a) notes the 20th anniversary on 4 October 2011 of the Madrid Protocol, which notably banned mining in Antarctica; and
(b) affirms its support for the Madrid Protocol and for the continuation of Antarctica as a 'natural reserve devoted to peace and science'.
Question agreed to.
