Proposed new clause 5A
MS TUCKER (3.53 am): I move the amendment on the green sheet circulated in my name which proposes a new clause 5A. The amendment reads as follows:
That the following new clause be inserted in the Bill: Page 27, line 34:
"5A Insertion
The Principal Act is amended by inserting after section 35 the following section:'69A Review of Act and victims services scheme
'(1) The Minister must commission an independent review covering the operation of this Act and the victims services scheme during the 2 year period after this section commences.'(2) The Minister must table the final report of the review in the Legislative Assembly within 3 months after the end of that 2 year period.'.".
Mr Humphries: Kerrie, we will support it.
MS TUCKER: You will?
Mr Humphries: Yes, as long as you do not speak to it.
MS TUCKER: I will be very brief. I have been given an indication from the Government that I will be supported on this. This is basically about having an independent review covering the operation of this Act and the victims services scheme during the two-year period after this section commences. I thank members for their support.
