AAP
The Senate is urging the federal government to make its departments and agencies use recycled paper.
The upper house on Wednesday backed a motion by the Australian Greens and Motoring Enthusiast senator Ricky Muir to reinstate a government commitment to supply 100 per cent recycled paper to the public service.
"The government seems happy to recycle prime ministers but is refusing to do the same for paper," Greens senator Janet Rice said.
