I move:

That the Senate—

(a) notes the Trump administration in the United States of America has declared 7 November to be the National Day for Victims of Communism;

(b) further notes the Senate motion passed on 18 October 2017 rejecting any assertion that the teachings of Lenin or Marx should be celebrated in a liberal democracy;

(c) recalls the number of refugees who came to Australia fleeing communist regimes; and

(d) calls upon the Government to organise a similar annual commemoration remembering the victims of communism from 7 November 2018 onwards.
