I move:

That the Senate—

  (a)   notes the 20th anniversary on 4 October 2011 of the Madrid Protocol, which notably banned mining in Antarctica; and

  (b)   affirms its support for the Madrid Protocol and for the continuation of Antarctica as a 'natural reserve devoted to peace and science'.

Question agreed to.
