Thanks, Senator Faruqi. The government will be supporting this amendment. The bill contains strong provisions to ensure an expert board which reflects the diversity of our communities and our research sector. This amendment will help further emphasise the importance of diversity in board selections, which is important.

The TEMPORARY CHAIR: The question is that the Australian Greens amendment on sheet 2441 be agreed to.

Question agreed to.
