I move:

At the end of the motion, add ", but the Senate notes that to achieve the aims of the bill in enhancing and protecting biodiversity, the Government must:

(a) create an investment strategy for biodiversity conservation programs;

(b) implement the recommendations of the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures; and

(c) undertake a review of the governance of the nature repair market and whether responsibility for the market should be transferred to the Environmental Protection Agency once that agency has been established".

Question agreed to.

Original question, as amended, agreed to.
