I move:

That the Senate—

(a) notes that:

(i) it has been more than 18 months since the Economics References Committee tabled its report entitled Third party certification of food, and

(ii) in a response to question on notice no. 438, asked on 29 March 2017, the Government has:

(A) acknowledged that it understood the importance of the recommendations of the inquiry, and

(B) admitted that it has given serious consideration to the inquiry's recommendations and has committed to responding to these recommendations in due course; and

(b) calls on the Government to finalise its serious considerations and expedite implementation of the important recommendations in the report of the Economics References Committee on the inquiry into Australian food certification schemes and certifiers.
