I move:

At the end of the motion, add:

", but the Senate:

(a) notes that, as part of its inquiry into Australia's Automotive Manufacturing Industry, the Productivity Commission recommended that the Government should progressively relax the restrictions on the importation of second-hand passenger and light commercial vehicles; and

(b) calls on the Government to relax import restrictions on second-hand cars to allow widespread wholesale importation of late model second-hand vehicles from countries such as Japan."
