I, and also on behalf of Senator Rhiannon and Senator Conroy, move:
That the Senate—
(a) notes that:
(i) at least 114 countries have banned foreign political donations, and
(ii) Australia is not one of the at least 114 countries that ban foreign political donations; and
(b) calls on the Government to support legislative changes to make overseas political donations illegal.
Question agreed to.
