I move:

That the Senate—
(a)
notes the draft report of the Uranium Mining, Processing and Nuclear Energy Review Taskforce appointed by the Prime Minister (Mr Howard); and
(b)
calls on the Government to reject:
(i)
any proposals for the deployment of nuclear power in Australia,
(ii)
the construction of nuclear reactors on or offshore around Australia,
(iii)
the construction of nuclear waste dumps in Australia, and
(iv)
any proposal for the development of nuclear enrichment facilities in Australia.

Question put.
