SCRUTINY OF BILLS AND SUBORDINATE LEGISLATION - STANDING COMMITTEE

Report and Statement

MS MAHER: I seek leave to present a report of the Standing Committee on the Scrutiny of Bills and Subordinate Legislation.

Leave granted.

Mr Connolly: On a point of order, Mr Speaker: Can we do this, it being after 11 o'clock?

MR SPEAKER: It is so close to 11 o'clock; and if leave is granted we certainly can.

Mr Connolly: I think there is a question of procedure as to whether the 11 o'clock rule can be waived with the leave of the house.

MR SPEAKER: According to my clock, it was 11 o'clock when I called Ms Maher to her feet. Please proceed, Ms Maher.

MS MAHER: I present the following report:

Scrutiny of Bills and Subordinate Legislation - Standing Committee - Report No 3 of 1991, dated 19 February 1991 -

Report No. 3, which I have just tabled, details the committee's comments on the Publications Control (Amendment) Bill 1991, Water Supply (Chemical Treatment) (Amendment) Bill 1991, Weapons Bill 1991, Weapons (Consequential Amendments) Bill 1991, and the Subordinate Laws (Amendment) Bill 1991, together with its comment on three pieces of subordinate legislation and a government response to the committee. I commend the report to the Assembly.
