I move:
That the Senate—
(a) acknowledges the positive contribution made to Australian society by the Kurdish community;
(b) condemns the recent attacks on the Kurdish Society of Victoria, including an arson attack and shooting of their community centre; and
(c) calls on local and federal authorities:
(i) to investigate these attacks as a matter of urgency, and
(ii) to determine whether these attacks constitute a coordinated campaign of intimidation against the Victorian Kurdish community.
Question agreed to.
