Motion, as amended, agreed to.

MADAM SPEAKER: Does that mean that all these papers will be tabled before the close of business today? Is that the Assembly’s understanding?

Mr Wall: Yes.

Mr Coe: Point of order, Madam Speaker. Could you clarify whose responsibility it is to actually table these documents?

MADAM SPEAKER: I would presume the authors of the reports would be responsible for tabling. However, that means that the authors would have to request leave because none of them is a minister. I presume that the leave is already granted by virtue of the motion.

MR COE (Ginninderra) (10.47): That being the case I hereby table one of the draft reports:

Planning, Environment and Territory and Municipal Services—Standing Committee—Alternative Report—Inquiry into the Planning and Development (Project Facilitation) Amendment Bill 2014, dated May 2014.

MADAM SPEAKER: Thank you, Mr Coe. Can I just clarify that? Normally speaking, non-executive members need leave to table something but in this case they do not need leave because they have been ordered by the Assembly to do so.

MR GENTLEMAN (Brindabella) (10.48): Madam Speaker, in accordance with the order today I also table the chair’s draft:

Planning, Environment and Territory and Municipal Services—Standing Committee—Chair’s Draft Report—Inquiry into the Planning and Development (Project Facilitation) Amendment Bill 2014, dated 6 May 2014.

Justice and Community Safety—Standing Committee

Scrutiny report 17

MR DOSZPOT (Molonglo): I present the following report:

Justice and Community Safety (Legislative Scrutiny Role)—Standing Committee—Scrutiny Report 17, dated 29 April 2014, together with the relevant minutes of proceedings.

I seek leave to make a brief statement.

Leave granted.

MR DOSZPOT: Scrutiny report 17 contains the committee’s comments on six bills, 13 pieces of subordinate legislation and five government responses. The report was circulated to members when the Assembly was not sitting. I commend the report to the Assembly.
