Question so resolved in the negative.

Amendment negatived.

MR STEFANIAK (Minister for Education and Attorney-General) (3.58): Mr Speaker, I move amendment No 1 circulated in my name [see schedule 1, part 1, at page 1971]. This amendment seeks to omit paragraph (b) of clause 5 (1) and substitute a new paragraph.

Mr Speaker, paragraph (b) reads:

My amendment proposes that that paragraph be omitted and the following paragraph be substituted:

The amendment simply makes it clearer that a person must comply with the requirements, imposed under the proposed act, by the security officer. This in fact reflects a suggestion that the scrutiny of bills committee made.

Mr Speaker, I present a supplementary explanatory memorandum to government amendments to the bill.

MR STANHOPE (Leader of the Opposition) (3.59): The Labor Party supports the amendment.

Amendment agreed to.
