I move:
That the Senate:
(a) notes the resolution of the 70th World Health Assembly on Cancer Prevention and Control in the context of an integrated approach;
(b) expresses its support for the resolution and for global co-operative efforts to reduce the incidence and mortality of cancer; and
(c) urges the Australian Government to:
(i) consider and, where appropriate, implement the actions the resolution calls upon member states to implement, and
(ii) where appropriate, support the Director-General of the World Health Organisation in implementing the actions the resolution calls upon him to implement.
Question agreed to.
