Legislative Assembly for the ACT: 1996 Week 7 Hansard (20 June) . . Page.. 1973 ..

MR WOOD (continuing):

I want to flag that I will be suggesting to the committee that we look again at the Government's response to the use of the ACTEW fleet. I am not entirely satisfied with ACTEW's response and the Government's acceptance of that response in relation to their fleet. If the committee agrees, I will be wanting to take that matter somewhat further. This has been a long argument and a long process. I think there is still some work to be done before the government fleet is managed to the satisfaction of this Assembly and the community generally.

Question resolved in the affirmative.

Debate resumed from 14 May 1996, on motion by Mrs Carnell:

That the Assembly takes note of the paper.

MR WOOD (11.37): Mr Speaker, I notice that the Government has agreed to all the recommendations of the committee. I am appreciative of that. The committee acknowledges it, and I am sure that progress will continue to be made in the good management of those areas.

Question resolved in the affirmative.

MR SPEAKER: It being 45 minutes after the commencement of Assembly business, debate is interrupted in accordance with standing order 77.

MS FOLLETT: I present Reports Nos 7 and 8 of the Standing Committee on Scrutiny of Bills and Subordinate Legislation and I ask for leave to make a brief statement on the reports.

Leave granted.

MS FOLLETT: Report No. 7 of 1996, which I have just presented, was circulated when the Assembly was not sitting, on 4 June 1996, pursuant to the resolution of appointment of 9 March 1995. Report No. 8 of 1996 contains the committee's comments on one Bill. Mr Speaker, that Bill is the Evidence (Closed-Circuit Television) (Amendment) Bill, which is due for debate later today. The Assembly might note that the committee had no comment upon that Bill. I commend the reports to the Assembly.
