I move government amendment (10):

(10)    Clause 67, page 68 (after line 1), after subclause (2), insert:

  (2B)   In preparing a list of products for inclusion in a Minister’s priority list, the Minister must have regard to any relevant national waste policies or plans.

This amendment states that, when preparing the minister's priority list, the minister must have regard to any relevant national waste policies or plans, such as the National Waste Policy Action Plan that I spoke about in my second-reading speech.
