Legislative Assembly for the ACT: 2001 Week 7 Hansard (20 June) . . Page.. 2258 ..


Amendment agreed to.

MR STEFANIAK (Minister for Education and Attorney-General) (10.21): I move amendment No 3 circulated in my name [see schedule 3 at page 2281].

This amendment will allow for additional amendments, if necessary, by regulation. In particular, consideration is currently being given to the need to include density as a component of the information required to be provided.

Amendment agreed to.

MR STEFANIAK (Minister for Education and Attorney-General) (10.22): I move amendment No 4 circulated in my name [see schedule 3 at page 2281]. The government is moving this amendment as a practical amendment because presently there is no such approved meter that can measure a split load delivery. However, there is an approved temperature measuring device designed for this purpose that can be installed on the delivery outlet of a tanker. The device measures the temperature of the fuel as it is being delivered and is used to convert the ambient volume to the corrected volume using the known density.

If you read that explanation very quickly, you say, "Hello, does that make any sense?" When you read it slowly, you see that it does. It stumped Mr Malouf, me, Mr Osborne and a few others until we read it slowly, so my compliments to the drafter. It certainly does the job. I commend the amendment.

Amendment agreed to.

MR STEFANIAK (Minister for Education and Attorney-General) (10.23): I formally move amendment No 5 circulated in my name [see schedule 3 at page 2281]. This amendment is consequential to amendment No 1, which the government did not have the numbers on. I do not need to say anything further. I remind members of the comments I made in relation to workability when I spoke to amendment No 1.

Amendment negatived.

Clause 5, as amended, agreed to.

Title agreed to.

Bill, as amended, agreed to.
