(2) In the 1990-91 Budget, the Government provided $450,000

for proposals to computerise the preparation of draft

ACT legislation and the reprinting of amended ACT

legislation. The proposals have as their object a

significant reduction in recurrent printing costs, the

urgent reprinting of the entire collection of amended

ACT legislation, the establishment of a program for

regular reprinting thereafter and the establishment of a

database of up-to-date amended ACT legislation.

Implementation of the proposals is well advanced. New computer equipment has recently been installed in the Legislative Counsels Office and is expected to become fully operational in the near future.

Most of the legislation reprinted last year was prepared during trials of the new computer equipment. The rate of reprinting is expected to increase considerably when the new equipment becomes fully operational.
