Artificial Intelligence Joint Select Committee

Larissa Waters

I, and also on behalf of Senator Pocock, move:

(1) That the resolution of appointment of the Joint Select Committee on Artificial Intelligence be amended to insert after paragraph (3):

(3A) participating members may be appointed to the committee on the nomination, in the House of Representatives, of the Government or Opposition Whips or any minority group or independent Member, and, in the Senate, of the Leader of the Government or Opposition, or any minority group or independent Senator, and a participating member:

(a) shall be taken to be a member of the committee for the purposes of forming a quorum; and

(b) may participate in hearings of evidence and deliberations of the committee and have all rights of a committee member except that a participating member may not vote on any question before the committee;

(2) That this resolution be transmitted to the House of Representatives for concurrence.

The question is that general business notice of motion No. 721, standing in the name of Senators Waters and David Pocock, be agreed to.
