Clauses 1 to 3

Debate resumed.

MR WOOD (3.57): Mr Speaker, I indicated earlier that the Opposition would look to see that the amendments being proposed today were in conformity with the recommendations of the working party on tenancy legislation, or at least substantially in conformity with them, and that the amendments did not depart too greatly from what was said there. This stand was taken because of the short timeframe that we have had in which to deal with that report and match it with the proposed legislation. This legislation has been on the table for quite a deal longer, although it was only today that we received two sets of amendments.
