I, and also on behalf of Senator Bernardi, move:

That the Senate—
(a)
notes with great sadness the passing of respected disability advocate Dr Paul Collier;
(b)
offers its sincere condolences to the friends and family of Dr Collier, particularly his mother Wendy, sister Joanne, brother-in-law David and his three nephews for their tragic loss; and
(c)
notes his tireless and passionate work in seeking to improve the lives of people with disabilities and the valuable contribution he made to the community.

Question agreed to.
