Debate resumed from 5 June 2014, on motion by Mr Barr:
That this bill be agreed to in principle.
MADAM SPEAKER: I remind members that in debating order of the day No 1, executive business, they may also address their remarks to executive business order of the day No 2 and the government response to the report of the Select Committee on Estimates. If no-one wants to speak to the question that the bill be agreed to in principle, I will put it to the vote.
Question resolved in the affirmative.
Bill agreed to in principle.
Detail stage
MADAM SPEAKER: Standing order 180 sets down the order in which this bill will be considered. In the detail stage, any schedule expressing the services for which the appropriation is to be made must be considered before the clauses and, unless the Assembly otherwise orders, the schedules will be considered by proposed expenditure in the order shown. With the concurrence of the Assembly, I am proposing that the Assembly consider schedule 1 by each part.
Given Mr Barr’s proposed amendment to schedule 1, which omits the original schedule 1 and substitutes a new schedule 1 and schedule 1A, I am proposing that we deal with the total proposed expenditures by agency across the two schedules—both 1 and 1A.
Is this the wish of the Assembly? That being so, schedule 1 will be considered by each agency, then the clauses prior to schedule 2 and then the title.
Schedule 1—Appropriations.
MR BARR (Molonglo—Deputy Chief Minister, Treasurer, Minister for Economic Development, Minister for Housing and Minister for Tourism and Events) (10.14): Pursuant to standing order 182A(b), I seek leave to move amendments to this bill that are minor and technical in nature.
Leave granted.
MR BARR: I move amendment No 13 circulated in my name [see schedule 1 at page 2408] and I table supplementary explanatory statements to the amendments.
MADAM SPEAKER: The question now is that Mr Barr’s amendment No 13 be agreed to. As it is the wish of the Assembly, we will now proceed to consider the proposed expenditures of each agency across the two proposed schedules.
