TENANCY TRIBUNAL (AMENDMENT) BILL 1994
Debate resumed from 10 November 1994, on motion by Mr Connolly:
That this Bill be agreed to in principle.
MR HUMPHRIES (6.56): Madam Speaker, I will not detain the house for long. This Bill basically fixes up some mistakes that were made in the many amendments to the Tenancy Tribunal Act which received a hasty passage a few weeks ago. These amendments put in place the original intention of the Assembly. My discussions with the parties to this matter suggest that that is what these amendments do. Therefore, I indicate my party's 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) proposed:
That the Assembly do now adjourn.
Tuggeranong Festival
MR WOOD (Minister for Education and Training, Minister for the Arts and Heritage and Minister for the Environment, Land and Planning) (6.57): Madam Speaker, I want to make a comment on the Tuggeranong Festival, which was held over last weekend. It was an outstanding event, which was very well organised by a dedicated group of Tuggeranong people who put their heart and soul into it. It is a clear demonstration of the energy that is there. All members will agree that the community in Tuggeranong is rather more distinct than communities in other parts of Canberra.
Mr De Domenico: Especially the small business people.
MR WOOD: Mr De Domenico, the whole community. That was something that you ignored in recent statements. I do want to commend that festival. Annette Ellis was a very active part of it. I am sure that I can convey, on behalf of the Assembly as a whole, our congratulations to the people who worked so hard.
