MS CARNELL (Chief Minister): Mr Speaker, I present for the information of members the following paper:
Administrative arrangements (Gazette S13), dated 10 May 2000
I ask for leave to make a statement.
Leave granted.
MS CARNELL: Mr Speaker, the Administrative Arrangements Orders I have tabled today have been prepared for the purpose of updating references to legislation. They came into effect on 10 May 2000. The arrangements include references to new laws. A number of repealed laws have also been deleted. The arrangements are made at this time to coincide with the commencement of the Children and Young People Act 1999 and reflect the agreed arrangements between the justice and education portfolios. Administrative Arrangements released last August located all corrective service measures, including youth justice, in one administrative area. Portfolio responsibility for the Children and Young People Act has been allocated along the same lines.
There are some additional minor changes relating to the allocation of laws between the Attorney-General and justice portfolios. Sections 6 and 7 of the Energy Efficiency Ratings (Sale of Premises) Act 1997 have been transferred from the urban services portfolio to the justice portfolio. This means that the Office of Fair Trading will now cover compliance requirements for advertising houses for sale.
