I thank the member for Brisbane for her contribution and for the opposition's support for the bill. The bill represents an important step in Australia's longstanding commitment to the ICRC and the International Criminal Court and will greatly assist these organisations in undertaking their work in Australia. I commend the bill to the House.

Question agreed to.

Bill read a second time.

Ordered that the bill be reported to the House without amendment.

Federation Chamber adjourned at 17:39
