I move:

That the Senate—

(a)

notes the inauguration of the Musée du Quai Branly in Paris on Tuesday, 20 June 2006, and that this museum will have a significant collection of Australian pieces which will feature artworks by high-profile Australian Indigenous artists such as John Mawurndjul, Gulumbu Yunupingu, Paddy Nyunkuny Bedford, Lena Nyadbi, Tommy Watson, Ningura Napurrula, Judy Watson and Michael Riley; and

(b)

commends Indigenous artists across Australia for their contribution to Australian cultural life and the Australia Council for its role in negotiating the display of Australian Indigenous artworks in the Musée du Quai Branly.

Question agreed to.
