Legislative Assembly for the ACT: 1996 Week 3 Hansard (26 March) . . Page.. 614 ..

MR BERRY (11.40): I seek leave to move a motion concerning the membership of standing committees.

Leave granted.

MR BERRY: I move:

That:

(1) Mr Berry be discharged from attending the Standing Committee on Planning and Environment and, in his place, Ms McRae be appointed a member of the Committee;

(2) Ms Follett be discharged from attending the Standing Committee on Public Accounts and, in her place, Mr Wood be appointed a member of the Committee;

(3) Mr Whitecross be discharged from attending the Standing Committee on Scrutiny of Bills and Subordinate Legislation and, in his place, Ms Follett be appointed a member of the Committee; and

(4) Ms McRae be discharged from attending the Standing Committee on Social Policy and, in her place, Ms Reilly be appointed a member of the Committee.

The motion sets out some changed membership of committees as a result of the Labor Party decision to rearrange some of the shadow responsibilities and responsibilities for some of its members in relation to those committees. I think it is self-explanatory.

Question resolved in the affirmative.

MR OSBORNE: I present Report No. 2 of the Standing Committee on Scrutiny of Bills and Subordinate Legislation. I seek leave to make a brief statement on the report.

Leave granted.

MR OSBORNE: Report No. 2 of 1996, which I have just presented, was circulated when the Assembly was not sitting, on 20 March 1996, pursuant to the resolution of appointment of 9 March 1995. I commend the report to the Assembly.
