Senator DUNIAM (Tasmania—Assistant Minister for Forestry and Fisheries and Assistant Minister for Industry Development) (15:58): I seek leave to make a short statement. The PRESIDENT: Leave is granted for one minute. Senator DUNIAM: The Australian government recognises the importance of the ABC. Further, the government recognises that the ABC has content and operational independence which is enshrined in legislation. To support the ABC, the government provides more than $1 billion in funding to the ABC, which increases each year over the current triennium. The government appointed Ms Buttrose as chair of the ABC and continues to support her in that role. The government recognises the importance of the ABC serving all Australians and welcomes the recent decision from the ABC to move up to 300 staff to Parramatta in line with our advocacy. The PRESIDENT: The question is motion 1134, moved by Senator Hanson-Young, be agreed to.
