by leave—I move amendments (1) to (4) as circulated in my name together:

(1) Clause 4, page 3 (after line 12), after the definition of animal, insert:

Animal Health Australia has the same meaning as in the Primary Industries Levies and Charges Disbursement Act 2023.

(2) Clause 4, page 3 (after line 20), after the definition of aquaculture, insert:

emergency animal biosecurity response deed has the same meaning as in the Primary Industries Levies and Charges Disbursement Act 2023.

emergency plant biosecurity response deed has the same meaning as in the Primary Industries Levies and Charges Disbursement Act 2023.

(3) Clause 4, page 4 (after line 11), after the definition of plant, insert:

Plant Health Australia has the same meaning as in the Primary Industries Levies and Charges Disbursement Act 2023.

(4) Clause 7, page 6 (lines 24 to 27), omit paragraphs (3)(c) and (d), substitute:

(c) expenditure on activities, including biosecurity activities, that:

(i) are undertaken by Animal Health Australia or Plant Health Australia; and

(ii) relate to the promotion or maintenance of the health of plants, animals, fungi or algae;

(d) expenditure on matters relating to a biosecurity response under:

(i) the emergency animal biosecurity response deed; or

(ii) the emergency plant biosecurity response deed;

As I said in my summing up speech, the amendments would go against the intent of the bill, which is to modernise the levy system, and we oppose those amendments.

Question unresolved.

As it is necessary to resolve this question to enable further questions to be considered in relation to this bill, in accordance with standing order 195, the bill will be returned to the House for further consideration.
