I move:

That the Senate—
(a)
notes local government and community opposition to a road, proposed by Forestry Tasmania, through a section of the Tarkine forest; and
(b)
calls on the Government to ensure no federal funding is used, directly or indirectly, for this road unless or until local government concerns are addressed.

Question agreed to.
