I move the second reading amendment standing in my name:

At the end of the motion, add “and the Senate:

             (a)    notes the criticisms of the findings and methods of the Australian Participants in British Nuclear Tests in Australia Dosimetry and Mortality and Cancer Incidence Study;

             (b)    affirms that the bill does not preclude subsequent compensation claims and arrangements; and

             (c)   recommends consideration of continued data collection and epidemiological studies of cancer incidence and deaths subsequent to 2001”.
