I thank Senator Pocock for his contribution. Protecting biodiversity is extremely important to the Albanese government. Australia's history is full, as he said, of too much disrespect for and destruction of the biodiversity of this great country. We must, and we will do, better. However, the best place for these issues to be dealt with is in the EPBC Act, and that's why the government will be opposing this amendment.
