Holidays (Christmas Day) (No. 2) Amendment Bill

Final Stages

In committee (resumed on motion).

The CHAIR: The member for Mount Gambier, I understand, has moved that the amendments be insisted upon.

Mr BELL: Correct.

The CHAIR: You have moved that and spoken to it. Are you happy to take any questions or I could ask for any further contributions?

The Hon. D.C. VAN HOLST PELLEKAAN: The stage we were at when we moved onto the work we have just been doing was that the member for Lee had finished a question/contribution and the member for Mount Gambier was about to respond to that if he wanted to. That is where we were.

The CHAIR: Thank you, minister. I do appreciate that because I was not actually chairing this committee earlier today. So, member for Mount Gambier, do you wish to speak to that?

Mr BELL: I think we have all agreed, Chairman, to move through this stage to progress to a vote to get some surety around this bill as soon as possible.

The CHAIR: There are no further contributions? If not, I will put the question and the question before the Chair is that the motion put by the member for Mount Gambier that the amendment be insisted upon be agreed to.

The committee divided on the motion.
