At the request of Senator Nettle, I move:

That the Senate—

(a)

notes:

(i)

that Australia’s coal exports will cause as much greenhouse gas emissions as are produced in Australia each year, and

(ii)

that coal from the proposed Anvil Hill coal mine in New South Wales will cause more greenhouse gas emissions than the 4 million vehicles on New South Wales roads; and

(b)

calls on the Government not to approve the development of the Anvil Hill coal mine.

Question put.
