That the report be noted.

MS DUNDAS (4.48): Members have taken the opportunity this morning to say most of what needed to be said in relation to this report. We have had the reports of two privileges inquiries tabled recently which made a raft of recommendations to improve the workings of this process and of this Assembly. We should now move forward with the recommendations in relation to the advice and support given to members and make sure that the framework within which privileges committees operate are streamlined. Standing orders are currently being reviewed. I am happy to note this report.

Question resolved in the affirmative.

MR HARGREAVES (4.49): I seek leave to move a motion to allow the Standing Committee on Community Services and Social Equity to report on its inquiry into support services for families of people in custody while the Assembly is not sitting.
