I move:

That, in respect of the inquiry by the Environment and Communications Legislation Committee into the provisions of the Water Amendment (Restoring Our Rivers) Bill 2023, the Senate directs the committee to hold public hearings in the Murray-Darling Basin communities of Deniliquin, Griffith, Mildura, Renmark and Shepparton before the committee reports, and invite representatives of these communities to give evidence over a period of a minimum of 4 hours for each community.

Question agreed to.
