- ### Motion text
- > *That the Senate supports repealing the Student Services Amenities Fee.*
<p class="speaker">James McGrath</p><p>I seek leave to make a short statement.</p> <p class="speaker">Scott Ryan</p><p>Leave is granted for one minute.</p> <p class="speaker">James McGrath</p><p>The coalition strongly opposed Labor's repeal of the voluntary student unionism laws passed under the Howard government. For many liberals and conservatives, guaranteeing students the basic right to freely associate and not be forced to join or to contribute funds to a student union has been a lifelong principle.</p> <p class="speaker">Scott Ryan</p><p>The question is that notice of motion No. 549, standing in the name of Senator Bernardi, be agreed to.</p>
