Just on the comments around the room earlier, the bill only asks for a plebiscite to give the Australian people a say in who comes to this country. I can't think of anything more democratic than that, but apparently everyone else in this room can. I move:
That the following bill be introduced: A Bill for an Act to provide for a plebiscite at the next general election in relation to migration to Australia and for related purposes.
Question agreed to.
I present the bill and move:
That this bill may proceed without formalities and be now read a first time.
Question negatived.
