of others, arose as being a matter of contention on the part of the business sector.

For the Minister to merely bring forward this one amendment as a token gesture, to try to placate the industry in some fashion, is totally unacceptable. It is accepted in that way by the Opposition. It in no way improves the Bill. We will not support this or any other amendment from the Government at this stage until there has been proper consultation on the whole Bill.

Question put:

That the amendment be agreed to.

The Assembly voted -

AYES, 11  NOES, 5

Mr Berry Mr Humphries
Mr Collaery Mr Kaine
Mr Duby Mrs Nolan
Ms Follett Mr Stefaniak
Mrs Grassby Mr Stevenson
Mr Jensen
Ms Maher
Mr Moore
Mr Prowse
Mr Whalan
Mr Wood

Question so resolved in the affirmative.

Amendment agreed to.

MS FOLLETT (Treasurer) (5.01): I have further amendments, Mr Speaker, to clause 5, and they have been circulated. I seek leave to move them together.

Leave granted.

MS FOLLETT: I move:

Page 4, line 41, omit "regulated credit contract", substitute "regulated contract".

Page 5, line 11, omit "regulated credit contract", substitute "regulated contract".

Amendments agreed to.

Question put:

That the clause, as amended, be agreed to.
