Detail Stage
Bill, by leave, taken as a whole
MR CONNOLLY (Attorney-General, Minister for Housing and Community Services and Minister for Urban Services) (4.32): Madam Speaker, I move:
Page 6, clause 6, line 11, proposed new subparagraph 10H(1)(a)(xii), omit "Youth", substitute "Community".
There was an error detected in this Bill. I think it was detected by the Scrutiny of Bills Committee, but I am not entirely sure. There was reference in new paragraph 10H(1)(a)(xii) to the position of Youth Advocate, which has been abolished. We now have a Community Advocate. It is necessary to omit "Youth" and substitute "Community". I present the supplementary explanatory memorandum.
Amendment agreed to.
Bill, as a whole, as amended, agreed to.
Bill, as amended, agreed to.
REGISTRAR-GENERAL BILL 1993
[COGNATE BILL:
REGISTRAR-GENERAL (CONSEQUENTIAL PROVISIONS) BILL 1993]
Debate resumed from 17 June 1993, on motion by Mr Connolly:
That this Bill be agreed to in principle.
MADAM SPEAKER: Is it the wish of the Assembly to debate this order of the day concurrently with the Registrar-General (Consequential Provisions) Bill 1993? There being no objection, that course will be followed. I remind members that in debating order of the day No. 4 they may also address their remarks to order of the day No. 5.
MR HUMPHRIES (4.33): Madam Speaker, I indicate my party's support for these two Bills. Members may be aware from their dealings with various arms of the ACT Government over a period that there is a multiplicity of different sorts of registrar in the ACT. We have a Registrar of Births, Deaths and Marriages. We have a Registrar of Unclaimed Moneys, a Registrar of Business Names, a Registrar of Securities, a Registrar of Incorporated Associations, and, of course, the Registrar of Titles, which is a significant office. There is some overlap between these various functions, but there is no exact overlap between the various titles.
