DISCRIMINATION (AMENDMENT) BILL (NO. 3) 1994

Debate resumed from 10 November 1994, on motion by Mr Connolly:

That this Bill be agreed to in principle.

MR HUMPHRIES (9.35): The Opposition will support this Bill. It effects a very minor amendment to the Discrimination Act which makes it clear that matters stated or evidence given in the course of mediation proceedings under the Act is not evidence in later proceedings under the Act. It is obviously sensible to protect the integrity of that process, and the Bill has the support of the Opposition.

MR CONNOLLY (Attorney-General and Minister for Health) (9.36), in reply: I thank the Opposition for their support. If only we could always get on this well together!

Question resolved in the affirmative.
