Clause 228.
MR CORBELL (Molonglo—Attorney-General, Minister for Police and Emergency Services, Minister for the Environment and Minister for Capital Metro) (5.39): I move amendment No 8 circulated in my name [see schedule 2 at page 4275]. This amendment relates to the offence of failing to comply with a repair damage direction. In response to the scrutiny of bills committee report, this amendment adds an additional defence, at clause 228(3), to this offence. The scrutiny of bills committee report advised that although the offence in clause 228(1) was similar to offences in clause 225(1) it did not include similar defences. This amendment corrects that omission.
