This motion is a stitch-up between the government and One Nation, and there is no doubt there are predetermined outcomes in play here. The committee is not fit for purpose. The fact that One Nation will co-chair this inquiry with its anti-women, anti-children agenda should tell us all we need to know about its integrity and independence. The Australian Law Reform Commission's review into the family law system was tabled in April this year and contained 60 recommendations to place children at the centre of the system. The government is yet to respond to those recommendations. They are what the government should be focusing on, not engaging in dangerous, rank politicking on a complex issue, which is exactly what will happen at this inquiry. The Greens will not be supporting this motion.
