Senator IAN MACDONALD (Queensland) (17:36): My notice of motion highlights the fact that a vessel owned by Sea Shepherd, a company that former Senator Bob Brown chairs, has spilled oil into the Trinity Inlet of the Great Barrier Reef. The motion asks the Senate to note that not only did the Sea Shepherd do it but also the Sea Shepherd organisation was fined $15,000. It noted that Dr Brown was the head of that organisation. The PRESIDENT: I may be able to assist you. I have a signed copy of the notice of motion in front of me now. It has been lodged. Senator IAN MACDONALD: I am happy to read it out. The motion that I was intending to move was actually lodged on behalf of Senator Williams, Senator Bernardi and myself. It calls upon the Senate to condemn this and to seek an apology from Mr Brown to the people of Queensland for his reckless and wilful action in damaging the Great Barrier Reef. I know that all senators will support that motion.
