Question resolved in the affirmative.

MR HUMPHRIES (Attorney-General, Minister for Justice and Community Safety and Minister Assisting the Treasurer) (3.49): Mr Speaker, for the information of members, I present the report on the operation of the Electoral Act 1992 in regard to the 1998 ACT Legislative Assembly election. I move, pursuant to standing order 214:

That the Review be referred to the Select Committee on the Report of the Review of Governance for inquiry and report as part of the Select Committee's inquiry.

I will speak briefly to that motion, Mr Speaker. Members will recall that it was one of the recommendations of the report on the 1995 ACT Assembly election that there be a Standing Committee on Electoral Matters set up in the Legislative Assembly. From memory, the Assembly at the time generally adopted that recommendation.
