by leave—It is really important that the Japanese government are asked to make an apology for the treatment of comfort women in Japan during World War II. The Greens have been involved in the campaign with community groups in Australia and around the world, calling for an official apology from the Japanese government. We think it is extremely important that the Australian parliament pass a motion calling for an official apology from the Japanese government similar to what the US congress did last week, when it called for an official apology. That is what we support.

Question agreed to.
