I move:

That the Senate—

(a) notes that racism, extremism and hate speech have no place in our Australian democracy; and

(b) calls on all Australian political parties to put candidates and political parties that support these views, including One Nation, last on their electoral preferences in the upcoming Federal election.

I seek leave to make a very short statement.

The PRESIDENT: Leave is granted for one minute.

T his relates to the importance of putting One Nation and other extremists last on how-to-vote cards .
