I move:
That, noting the issue of excess mortality in Australia has not been adequately investigated, the following matters be referred to the Community Affairs References Committee for inquiry and report by 31 July 2024:
(a) Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) data showing excess deaths in recent years, with particular reference to:
(i) all-cause provisional mortality data reported by the states and territories to the ABS, and
(ii) the difference between all-cause provisional mortality data for 2021, 2022 and 2023 and the preceding years of 2015 to 2020 (inclusive);
(b) any other identified factors contributing to excess mortality; and
(c) any other related matter.
