I seek leave to amend general business notice of motion No. 71 standing in my name, relating to families and the tax system, relating to income splitting. Leave is granted.

I move the motion as amended:

That the Senate—

(a) acknowledges that:

(i) the family is the basis of society and, in most cases, the best place to raise children,

(ii) policies that encourage the formation of stable families should be supported,

(iii) the freedom to choose whether a parent can stay at home or pursue work is vital to the formation of stable families, and

(b) calls on the Senate to debate or have a senate inquiry into the benefits of giving married couples the option to prepare and file joint income returns and income splitting.
