I move:

That the Senate—

(a) notes that:

(i) the Murray-Darling Basin Plan (the Plan) has come under serious scrutiny from both the South Australian Royal Commission and the recent inquiry by the Rural and Regional Affairs and Transport References Committee, and

(ii) the Plan has no provisions to address the impacts of climate change on the Murray­ Darling Basin; and

(b) calls on the Federal Government to take the threat of climate change seriously, and include the impacts of climate change within the Plan.
