Legislative Assembly for the ACT: 1996 Week 13 Hansard (5 December) . . Page.. 4495 ..
MS TUCKER (continuing):
Other members expressed an opinion that six days was onerous, and we have agreed to amend that to four, so everyone is in agreement on that issue. As I said earlier, the amendment is based on the South Australian regulations, and we are happy that all members will support it.
Amendment agreed to.
MS TUCKER (5.07): I move:
Page 3, line 18, subclause (1), after the definition of "ammunition" insert the following definition:
"`approved club' means a club declared by the Registrar under section 14A to be an approved club;".
The definition the Greens are proposing for "approved club" is different from what was proposed. Rather than listing a number of groups, we are proposing to use the guidelines from the regulations in New South Wales. I believe that we also have agreement from all members on this amendment.
Amendment agreed to.
Amendments (by Mr Humphries) agreed to:
Page 3, lines 19 and 20, subclause (1), definition of "authorised member", omit "a prescribed", substitute "an approved".
Page 4, line 36, subclause (1), definition of "firearms dealer", omit "a prescribed", substitute "an approved".
Clause, as amended, agreed to.
Clause 5 agreed to.
Clause 6
MR HUMPHRIES (Attorney-General) (5.08): I move:
Page 9, line 13, paragraph (2)(e), omit "a prescribed", substitute "an approved".
Mr Speaker, I have not spoken to any of these amendments so far and I do not intend to speak to most of them. They were discussed extensively between members yesterday, and it will take quite a while to deal with this Bill if we discuss each of them. If members wish to debate them, I am happy to put forward arguments; otherwise I propose just to move the amendments.
Amendment agreed to.
Clause, as amended, agreed to.
