Detail Stage

Clause 1 agreed to.

Proposed new clause 1A

MR CONNOLLY (Attorney-General, Minister for Housing and Community Services and Minister for Urban Services) (11.56): I move:

That the following new clause be inserted in the Bill:

Commencement

 "1A. (1) Section 1 and this section commence on the day on which this Act is notified in the Gazette.

 "(2) The remaining provisions commence on a day, or respective days, fixed by the Minister by notice in the Gazette.

 "(3) If a provision referred to in subsection (2) has not commenced before the end of the period of 6 months commencing on the day on which this Act is notified in the Gazette, that provision, by force of this subsection, commences on the first day after the end of that period.".

As explained in the explanatory memorandum, this is merely a standard commencement provision replacing the existing commencement provision.

Motion (by Mr Stevenson) put:

That the debate be adjourned.
