The bill: requires certain entities to report annually on the risks of genocide in their operations and supply chains and take action to address those risks; and establishes the Australian Anti-Genocide Commissioner to address genocide and support victims of genocide.

We acknowledge the traditional owners and custodians of country throughout Australia and acknowledge their continuing connection to land, waters and community. We pay our respects to the people, the cultures and the elders past, present and emerging.
