I move amendment No. 12:

In page 8, line 26, after “and” to insert the following: "support the long-term sustainability of diverse communities, including the intergenerational sustainability of urban communities, and".

I thank the Minister of State and colleagues across the House who have recognised the importance of sustainability and diversity. There is a common concern and passion for that kind of vision. My amendment states that the goals would be to, "support the long-term sustainability of diverse communities, including the intergenerational sustainability of urban communities". I thank the Minister for indicating that he will accept this amendment. It is a positive message in terms of sustainable development goal 11 on sustainable cities and communities.
