I just have a question for Senator Chisholm about the government not supporting a second reading amendment that basically talked about the need to actually look at the underlying causes of Nazism and not just ban some symbols.

The TEMPORARY CHAIR: Time has, unfortunately, expired, Senator Pocock. That was the time allotted for the debate on the Counter-Terrorism Legislation Amendment (Prohibited Hate Symbols and Other Measures) Bill 2023. After I have put the question before the chair, I will then put the questions on the remaining stages of the bill. The question is that the amendments moved by Senator Roberts on sheet 2307 be agreed to.

Question negatived.

The TEMPORARY CHAIR: I will first deal with the amendments circulated by the Australian Greens. I understand that earlier today Senator Shoebridge withdrew the amendments on sheet 2313, so I will now deal with the amendments on sheets 2251 and 2280. The first question is that items 3, 4 and 5 of schedule 4 stand as printed.

Australian Greens oppose d schedule 4 in the following terms

SHEET 2251

(2) Schedule 4, items 3 and 4, page 34 (lines 11 to 18), to be opposed.

(4) Schedule 4, item 5, page 34 (lines 21 to 23), to be opposed.

_____

SHEET 2280

(2) Schedule 4, item 5, page 34 (lines 21 to 23), to be opposed.

The TEMPORARY CHAIR (18:26): The question is that items 3, 4 and 5 of schedule 4 stand as printed.
