Mr Deputy President, I congratulate you on your creating history, as it was described yesterday. In accordance with the provisions of the Parliament Act 1974, I present a proposal for works within the Parliamentary Zone, together with supporting documentation, relating to the design of the pavement artwork at Reconciliation Place. I seek leave to give a notice of motion in relation to the proposal.

Leave granted.

I give notice that, on 3 September 2008, I shall move:

That, in accordance with section 5 of the Parliament Act 1974, the Senate approves the proposal by the National Capital Authority for capital works within the Parliamentary Zone, being the design of the Pavement Artwork at Reconciliation Place.
