Senator RUSTON (South Australia—Minister for Families and Social Services and Manager of Government Business in the Senate) (12:44): I seek leave to make a short statement. The PRESIDENT: Leave is granted for one minute. Senator RUSTON: The government has called on the international community to acknowledge the risk associated with wildlife wet markets and to take action to protect human health and agricultural industries. Australia's Chief Veterinary Officer, as President of the World Organisation for Animal Health, is seeking to deliver global reforms to wildlife wet markets to minimise the associated risks, or to phase them out where practical. This approach will reduce the risk of future pandemics and their subsequent far-reaching impacts while sustaining desirable global food security outcomes. Australia has some of the strictest wildlife trade rules in the world and is a signatory to the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora, resulting in over 1,000 species being prohibited from trade for commercial purposes. Question negatived. Senator Hanson-Young: I'd like clarification as to what the opposition's position on that motion was. The PRESIDENT: I'm afraid that's not a matter for the chamber. You can ask them, but I called it for the no. Senator Hanson-Young: I would like the Greens support to be recorded and for those who voted no to be recorded. The PRESIDENT: The standing orders and Practice allow you to have your position and the Greens position recorded. I called it for the no—others will need to extrapolate from that. Or it can be debated at some other point.
