I move:

Customs Tariff Proposal (No. 2) 2026.

Customs Tariff Proposal (No. 2) 2026 amends section 18B of the Customs Tariff Act 1995 to continue the concessional customs duty arrangements for goods produced or manufactured in Ukraine for an additional two years. Since 4 July 2022, most Ukraine-originating goods, apart from petroleum fuel, tobacco and alcohol products, have been eligible for a customs duty rate of free. This measure was scheduled to cease on 3 July 2026 but, as a result of the proposed alteration, will now remain in place until 3 July 2028. Maintaining the concessional tariff arrangements helps sustain Ukraine's engagement in global trade and reflects Australia's ongoing commitment to supporting Ukraine and its people. This tariff measure complements Australia's wider defence, economic and humanitarian assistance efforts.

Debate adjourned.
