STATUTE LAW REVISION BILL

Second Reading

Adjourned debate on second reading.

(Continued from 2 April 2008. Page 2260.)

The Hon. P. HOLLOWAY (Minister for Police, Minister for Mineral Resources Development, Minister for Urban Development and Planning) (17:25): I thank the Hon. Robert Lawson for his contribution and indication of support for the Statute Law Revision Bill. I have also discussed this with the Independent members of this parliament, who have indicated that they do not wish to make a contribution to what is really a very technical and straightforward bill. So I am pleased with the indications of support for this bill, and I look forward to its speedy passage, as soon as the Hon. Robert Lawson returns to the chamber.

Bill read a second time and taken through its remaining stages.

At 17:29 the council adjourned until Tuesday 8 April 2008 at 14:15.
