I, and also on behalf of Senator Cash and Senator Moore, move:

That the Senate—

  (a)   congratulates Anglicord – Anglican Overseas Aid on the launch of the Women Die Waiting campaign to highlight that breast cancer is one of the major causes of death for women in the Gaza Strip; and

  (b)   calls on all members of the Senate to support the Women Die Waiting campaign in their efforts to promote their cause and raise enough funds to provide 2 000 women in the Gaza Strip access to breast cancer screening every year.

Question agreed to.
