In continuing the contribution of summing up on the Export Finance and Insurance Corporation Amendment (Equity Investments and Other Measures) Bill 2021, I can say that the bill boosts Export Finance Australia's important role in supporting Australia's economic growth and facilitating stronger links between Australian businesses and the Indo-Pacific region while maintaining its robust processes for assessing commerciality, risk, and environmental and social impacts. I commend the bill to the Senate.

The question before the chair is that the second reading amendment, as moved by Senator Cox, be agreed to.

Question negatived.

Original question agreed to.

Bill read a second time.
