Mr Corbell: Mr Speaker, I will not prolong the agony except to restate that the government advised the opposition manager of business, my counterpart, Mrs Dunne, at the government business meeting, of the intention to bring on this debate in the Assembly business this week.

Education, Training and Youth Affairs—Standing Committee

Report 9

MS BRESNAN (Brindabella) (10.25): I present the following report:

Education, Training and Youth Affairs—Standing Committee—Report 9—Report on Annual and Financial Reports 2010-2011, dated 14 August 2012, together with a copy of the extracts of the relevant minutes of proceedings.

I move:

That the report be noted.

I will be very brief to save time and my voice. First off, I would like to thank my fellow committee members, Ms Porter and Mr Hanson. Throughout this term we have had a number of committee members and I thank everyone who has contributed as part of this committee.

I will just speak very briefly to one of the recommendations in the annual report; I will let people read the recommendations for themselves. I note recommendation 3. Obviously it is a matter which has come up since the annual report process around CIT—the WorkSafe ACT inquiry into allegations of bullying and harassment at CIT. The committee recommends that progress be reported on in the annual report. I think that would be a good thing to do. I imagine that a future standing committee on education, training and youth affairs may look into this matter.

Question resolved in the affirmative.

Report 10

MS BRESNAN (Brindabella) (10.27): I present the following report:

Education, Training and Youth Affairs—Standing Committee—Report 10—Accommodation needs of tertiary education students in the ACT, dated 14 August 2012, together with a copy of the extracts of the relevant minutes of proceedings.

I move:

That the report be noted.
