I move:
- That the Senate—
- (a)
 - recognises that 13 September 2008 was the first anniversary of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples;
 - (b)
 - notes the promise from the Australian Labor Party that it would support the declaration; and
 - (c)
 - calls on the Rudd Government to make a statement of support for the declaration at the United Nations General Assembly in October 2008.
 
 
Question put.
