Clause 8

MR JENSEN (3.10): Mr Speaker, I have an amendment. It has been signed and circulated. I move:

Page 3, line 7, proposed subsection 19(1A), omit "it", substitute "the Executive".

The reason for this is that the Standing Committee on the Scrutiny of Bills and Subordinate Legislation, when it was considering this Bill, thought that there may be some confusion as to what I was referring to by using "it" in that clause. I was proposing that information submitted to the Executive under subsection 18(1) be required to be submitted to the committee. There was some confusion as to whether I was talking about the committee or the Executive in that context. In view of the comments made by the Scrutiny of Bills Committee, I thought it appropriate to make that amendment so that there is no doubt about what we are trying to achieve. I commend the amendment to members.

Amendment agreed to.

Clause, as amended, agreed to.

Clauses 9 and 10, by leave, taken together, and agreed to.
