Explanatory statement to the Bill.
Human Rights Act, pursuant to section 37—Compatibility statement, dated 1 June 2012.
I move:
That this bill be agreed to in principle.
I will speak only briefly in relation to this legislation. Following recent legislative changes, a separate appropriation is now required for the Office of the Legislative Assembly. This bill provides such an appropriation, and I wholeheartedly commend it to the Assembly.
