I will first deal with the second reading amendments to the Treasury Laws Amendment (Delivering Better Financial Outcomes and Other Measures) Bill 2024, starting with the amendment circulated by the Australian Greens. The question is that the amendment on sheet 2678 be agreed to.

Australian Greens circulated amendment—

At the end of the motion, add ", but the Senate:

(a) notes that the Government promised to implement local content quotas on streaming giants by 1 July 2024, but it is yet to introduce any legislation, breaking this promise; and

(b) calls on the Government to support Australia's screen sector and prioritise the introduction of its legislative reforms for local content quotas to protect and promote Australian stories and jobs".
