Climate action and tourism debates
Senator Burke backed a debate on a one-stop-shop for climate action and also asked for an early debate on tourism as the holiday season begins.
I support Senator McGahon in his call for a debate on a one-stop-shop for climate action and climate control, which is taking in some local authorities. The initiative will be a great addition and warmly welcomed. A debate on the matter in this House would be very worthwhile.
I ask the Deputy Leader to arrange a debate on tourism in the not too distant future. It would be timely to have that debate now as we are at the start of the tourism season. Plus many people seem to be going away on holidays and we should debate ways to attract people to this country to see what we have to offer. We have some of the finest greenways and opportunities to climb mountains in the world. We could at this stage divert some moneys towards different sporting activities like the use of lakes, water skiing and so forth. That is an area we could debate if we had a debate on tourism.
