MR GENTLEMAN (Brindabella—Minister for the Environment and Heritage, Minister for Planning and Land Management, Minister for Police and Emergency Services and Minister assisting the Chief Minister on Advanced Technology and Space Industries) (5.04): I move amendment No 4 circulated in my name, which inserts a new clause 6A.

MR COE (Yerrabi—Leader of the Opposition) (5.05): The opposition will be supporting the government’s amendment here, which seeks to provide a more precise legal definition of land. We appreciate the legal and technical expertise of the public servants involved in the drafting of this legislation and support the additional clarity that this amendment will bring.
We do have changes ourselves to 6A, which will be effected in later amendments, to allow for the reporting of easements prescribed by legislation.
Amendment agreed to.
Proposed new clause 6A agreed to.
Clause 7.
MR GENTLEMAN (Brindabella—Minister for the Environment and Heritage, Minister for Planning and Land Management, Minister for Police and Emergency Services and Minister assisting the Chief Minister on Advanced Technology and Space Industries) (5.05): I move amendment No 5 circulated in my name. [see schedule 1 at page 4714].
MR COE (Yerrabi—Leader of the Opposition) (5.06): The opposition is supporting the government’s substitution of clause 7.
In the bill circulated in my name last week, we sought to publish the information on the ACT government website instead of its being tabled in the Assembly, to make reports more widely accessible. We anticipated that these reports could feasibly be uploaded to the relevant government agency’s website or the data page of the ACT government. I am glad to see that this has been accepted by all parties. We are also supportive of the report to also be given to the relevant committee for additional oversight.
