I move:

That—

(a) the Senate notes that:

(i) orders for the production of documents nos 229, 253 and 315 relating to the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) Financial Sustainability Framework have not been complied with, and

(ii) it has twice rejected the public interest immunity claim made by the Government in relation to orders 229 and 253, noting the significant public interest in disclosing the documentation relating to the NDIS Financial Sustainability Framework; and

(b) until the Senate resolves that the orders have been satisfactorily complied with, the Minister representing the Minister for the National Disability Insurance Scheme be required to attend the Senate at the start of proceedings on the first day of each sitting week to provide an explanation of the failure to comply with the orders, and that:

(i) any senator may move to take note of the explanation, and

(ii) any such motion may be debated for no longer than 30 minutes, shall have precedence over all other business until determined, and senators may speak to the motion for not more than 5 minutes each.
