<p class="italic">That—</p>
<p class="italic">(a) the Senate notes that orders for the production of documents nos 541, 550 and 568 relating to the final report of the Inspector-General of the Australian Defence Force twenty-year review have not been complied with; and</p>
<p class="italic">(b) until the Senate resolves that the orders have been satisfactorily complied with, the Minister representing the Minister for Defence be required to attend the Senate at the start of proceedings on the first day of each sitting week to provide an explanation of the failure to comply with the orders, and that:</p>
<p class="italic">(i) any senator may move to take note of the explanation, and</p>
<p class="italic">(ii) any such motion can be debated for no longer than 30 minutes, shall have precedence over all other business until determined, and senators may speak to the motion for not more than 5 minutes each.</p>
<p class="speaker">Katy Gallagher</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">Katy Gallagher</p>
<p>The government will be opposing this motion. The government has been transparent in making clear to the Senate in writing and in statements that this review will be released when consultations have concluded with stakeholders, including Defence, other agencies and the families of ADF personnel who have lost their lives while serving.</p>
<p>Offers for Senator Lambie to be briefed and to read the review remain. Motions of this nature are not constructive for the Senate's ability to scrutinise the government's legislative program. Other avenues exist under the standing orders to raise these matters.</p>
<p class="speaker">Sue Lines</p>
<p>The question is that notice of motion No. 586 standing in the name of Senator Lambie be agreed to.</p>
<p></p>
