I move:

That, in accordance with section 5 of the Parliament Act 1974, the House approve the following proposal for work in the Parliamentary Zone which was presented to the House on 23 June 2015, namely: Construction of a memorial commemorating the Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 (MH17) tragedy.

This was announced by the Prime Minister earlier this week in this place. Under section 5 of the Parliament Act 1974, the Presiding Officers are responsible for works within the parliamentary precinct. Accordingly, this motion is moved on behalf of the Speaker and the President. I also acknowledge the work of Christopher Molesworth in my office, from the department, in making this happen.

Question agreed to.
