Senator GALLAGHER (Australian Capital Territory—Manager of Opposition Business in the Senate) (16:56): I seek leave to make a short statement. The PRESIDENT: Leave is granted for one minute. Senator GALLAGHER: Labor will not support the Greens' motion. We agree that the images and evidence of animal cruelty are confronting and appalling, and we're deeply concerned that animal welfare failings have occurred with retired racehorses. However, there are a number of investigations and reviews underway, and the associated industries are working to ensure that systems are put in place to address the current failings. It's important to give these investigations and reviews the opportunity to do what they need to do and that the findings are made public to ensure that welfare standards are implemented and adhered to. The PRESIDENT: The question is that motion No. 227 be agreed to.
