Senator Chandler has submitted a proposal under standing order 75 today:

Pursuant to standing order 75, I propose that the following matter of public importance be submitted to the Senate for discussion:

In acknowledging the one year anniversary of the death of Mahsa 'Jina' Amini, the need for the Senate to express its unequivocal opposition to the violent oppression of Iranian women and girls and the arbitrary imprisonment and execution of protesters, and condemn the harassment and intimidation attempts against critics of the Islamic Republic of Iran regime in Australia, the regime's involvement in terrorism, the provision of drones to Russia for use against Ukraine and the use of hostage diplomacy against western nations.

Is the proposal supported?
