Clause 2 agreed to.

Clause 3

MR DE DOMENICO (Minister for Urban Services and Minister for Business, Employment and Tourism) (3.49): Mr Speaker, in the Government response to the report of the Select Committee on Competition Policy Reform, I forewarned the Assembly that the Government would propose a minor amendment, which is necessary to clarify the definition of "calendar month". This is a technical matter that has been brought to our attention by New South Wales Parliamentary Counsel and is being implemented in each of the States and Territories. The necessity for this minor change was advised to the select committee, and I believe that everybody is in accord with the amendment. I therefore move:

Page 3, line 18, subclause (1), definition of "month", insert "a day of" after "beginning of" (first occurring).

Amendment agreed to.

Clause, as amended, agreed to.

Remainder of Bill, by leave, taken as a whole, and agreed to.

Bill, as amended, agreed to.

Debate resumed from 13 December 1995, on motion by Mr Humphries:

That the Assembly takes note of the paper.

Question resolved in the affirmative.
