  • <p class="speaker">Jonathon Duniam</p>
  • <p>I seek leave to make a short statement.</p>
  • <p class="speaker">Sue Lines</p>
  • <p>Leave is granted for one minute.</p>
  • <p class="speaker">Jonathon Duniam</p>
  • <p>The government does not support the motion. We're delivering on our commitment to establish a Commonwealth Integrity Commission and the government has conducted a nation-wide consultation process on draft legislation for the CRC. This is significant legislation that we must get right so that Australians can have confidence that the commission will operate effectively.</p>
  • <p>The CRC will be essential to ensuring the integrity of our public sector, our government and our elected officials. It's essential for the functioning of Australia's government that we are methodical, consultive and thorough in our approach to developing this legislation.</p>
  • <p class="speaker">Sue Lines</p>
  • <p>The question is that general business notice of motion No. 1284, standing in the names of Senator Patrick and others, be agreed to.</p>
