MR JENSEN (5.16): I move:
Page 2, lines 9 to 15, omit paragraph (b), substitute the following paragraph:
"(b) by omitting subsection (2) and substituting the following subsections:
'(2) A determination under subsection (1) shall, unless disallowed under section 49, take effect on the date specified in the determination, being a date not earlier than 14 days after the date on which the determination was published in the Gazette.
'(2A) A determination under subsection (1A) shall take effect on the date specified in the determination.'.".
Very briefly, this picks up the change from 30 days to 14 days in a slightly different way from the Government. I commend the amendment to the house.
Amendment agreed to.
Clause, as amended, agreed to.
Clause 5
MR JENSEN (5.16): I move:
Page 2, lines 16 to 19, omit the clause, substitute the following clause:
Disallowance of determinations
"5. Section 49 of the Principal Act is amended -
(a) by omitting '30 days' and substituting '14 days'; and
(b) by adding at the end the following subsection:
'(2) A determination under subsection 48(1A) is a disallowable instrument for the purposes of section 10 of the Subordinate Laws Act 1989.'.".
I will speak very briefly. We want to make sure that the Assembly retains control over any determinations made by the Minister in relation to the setting of this water allowance. Quite frankly, this is the place where control should be. I once again commend this to members. I thank them for their clear support for this and the previous amendments.
