CONSUMER AFFAIRS (AMENDMENT) BILL 1992

Debate resumed from 9 September 1992, on motion by Mr Connolly:

That this Bill be agreed to in principle.

MR HUMPHRIES (10.31): Madam Speaker, this Bill goes hand in hand with the legislation we have just passed. It seems to me and to the Opposition to be a fair setting in place of provisions that complement that earlier Bill. Many of the amendments are fairly mechanical, but they do reflect the important changes that are effected by having our own Fair Trading Act. I therefore commend the Bill to the Assembly and suggest that it be enacted.

MR CONNOLLY (Attorney-General, Minister for Housing and Community Services and Minister for Urban Services) (10.32), in reply: I thank Mr Humphries. This does go together with the other Bill. These Bills were tabled on 19 September, so there has been plenty of time for community debate. I thank the Opposition for their support.

Question resolved in the affirmative.

Bill agreed to in principle.

Leave granted to dispense with the detail stage.

Bill agreed to.

ADJOURNMENT

Motion (by Mr Berry) agreed to:

That the Assembly do now adjourn.

Assembly adjourned at 10.32 pm
