Detail Stage

Clauses 1 and 2, by leave, taken together, and agreed to.

Clause 3

MR DE DOMENICO (Minister for Urban Services) (11.04): Mr Speaker, after negotiations with other members of the Assembly, I would like to withdraw my circulated amendments Nos 1, 2 and 3. They related to clause 3, page 2, line 2; clause 3A, page 2, line 3; and the schedule, page 2, line 28.

Clause agreed to.

Clause 4

MR WHITECROSS (11.05): Mr Speaker, my amendments Nos 1 and 2 to this Bill were consequential on an amendment to the provisions Bill which was defeated; so I will not be moving those amendments.

Clause agreed to.

Schedule

MR MOORE (11.06): Mr Speaker, I seek leave to move together amendments Nos 1 and 2 circulated in my name.

Leave granted.

MR MOORE: I move:

Page 2, line 33, omit “electricity”, substitute “energy”.

Page 2, line 34, insert the following item:

“Section 1 -

Omit ‘Electricity’, substitute ‘Energy’.”.

Mr Speaker, the purpose of these amendments is to change the wording of the name of ACTEW from “ACT Electricity and Water” to “ACT Energy and Water”. I believe that that fits in with the principles that a number of the members of the Assembly are trying to achieve and it will fit in very neatly with the amendment that has been circulated by Ms Horodny.
