Text recorded with this division

Peter Whish-Wilson

I move:

That there be laid on the table, by the Minister for Science, by no later than 9 am on Wednesday, 1 April 2026, any report and ministerial briefing papers delivered by the Chief Scientist or the Australian Academy of Science to the minister or the Government relating to an analysis of the integrity of the Australian information environment and/or the impacts of disinformation and misinformation on the Australian public and/or our scientific sector.

Slade Brockman

The question is that general business notice of motion No. 465, moved by Senator Whish-Wilson, be agreed to.

This is the question as put in the chamber, with the name of the member who spoke before the vote. It isn't a summary of the bill or motion.
