LIMITATION (AMENDMENT) BILL 1993

MR CONNOLLY (Attorney-General, Minister for Housing and Community Services and Minister for Urban Services) (8.03), by leave: Madam Speaker, I present the Limitation (Amendment) Bill 1993.

Title read by Clerk.

MR CONNOLLY: I move:

That this Bill be agreed to in principle.

This Bill contains measures that fall under two headings. The first heading is precautionary measures. In the matter of Capital Duplicators v. the Australian Capital Territory, the High Court decided that the Legislative Assembly does not have power to impose duties of excise. The litigation concerns the Business Franchise ("X" Video) Act 1990. The court left the question of whether that Act imposes a duty of excise to further proceedings, which were heard in April this year. The High Court has indicated that a decision on the validity of the Act will be handed down shortly.
