Legislative Assembly for the ACT: 2004 Week 04 Hansard (Thursday, 1 April 2004) . . Page.. 1539 ..

MR HARGREAVES: I move:

That if the Assembly is not sitting when the Standing Committee on Community Services and Social Equity has completed its inquiry into support services for families of people in custody, the Committee may send its report to the Speaker, or in the absence of the Speaker, to the Deputy Speaker, who is authorised to give directions for its printing, circulation and publication.

The Standing Committee on Community Services and Social Equity has a term of reference which includes support services for families of people in custody and also services to children in Quamby. There is quite a bit of work involved in this. We realise that the workload of the Assembly is going to be extensive in the very near future and we believe there is a chance that the report will be completed between sittings. It would be most appropriate if members were able to gain access to that report without waiting for the next rather full sitting day.
