households are expected to save nearly $70 million off their energy bills over the lifetime of the items installed under the EEIS. We are increasing the priority household target. These figures highlight the fact that Mr Coe’s speech today was simply not accurate. I am disappointed. I am prepared to share all of this information in great detail with our colleagues across the chamber to show them that these sorts of schemes make a real impact for people in our community. I commend the bill to the Assembly.

Question put:

That this bill be agreed to in principle.

The Assembly voted—

Question resolved in the affirmative.

Bill agreed to in principle.

Detail stage

Bill, by leave, taken as a whole.

MR RATTENBURY (Kurrajong—Minister for Climate Change and Sustainability, Minister for Corrections and Justice Health, Minister for Justice, Consumer Affairs and Road Safety and Minister for Mental Health) (4.08): Pursuant to standing order 182A(b), I seek leave to move an amendment to this bill which is minor and technical in nature.

Leave granted.

MR RATTENBURY: I move amendment No 1 circulated in my name and table a supplementary explanatory statement [see schedule 1 at page 3680]. This is a very minor technical amendment that is really about the detail. This clause substitutes clause 4(1) of the bill to clarify the instruments that will be repealed by the clause. Clause 4(1) will now provide that the current instruments, which were notified on 9 and 12 August 2019, will be repealed when clause 4(1) commences by way of ministerial notice. This is a rather technical tidy-up but an important one for the effectiveness of the scheme.

Amendment agreed to.
