<p>Draft versions of the report were unfinished working papers containing raw material from certain contributions made on the basis of confidentiality. A number of confidential submissions were made, informing the report. Editorial actions related to creating clarity and redacting confidential identifiers from the text. The document was subject to a cabinet process, with the final documents released to the public. The Moss report was an independent and unallied review of the regulatory culture of the Department of Agriculture and Water Resources, making substantive recommendations, all of which were accepted by the government. Recommendations have obliged change within the department and the industry. The department's resources are focused on implementing the report's recommendations.</p>
<p class="speaker">Scott Ryan</p>
<p>The question is that general business notice of motion No. 1238, standing in the name of Senator Faruqi, be agreed to.</p>
