Senator URQUHART (Tasmania—Opposition Whip in the Senate) (15:39): I wish to inform that Senator Bilyk also will sponsor the motion. At the request of Senator Brown and Senator Bilyk, I move: That the Senate— (a) congratulates the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) on its decision to include Auslan as a language option in the 2021 Australian census; and (b) acknowledges: (i) the advocacy of Deaf Australia and other deaf and hard-of-hearing organisations that has led to this decision by the ABS, and (ii) that recognition of Auslan and access to Auslan interpreters and interpretation is vital if deaf and hard-of-hearing Australians are to live full and included lives in our community, and an important part of that inclusion is recognition in the Australian census. Question agreed to.
