          <text continued="true" id="200910299702cc8a5e2d4dfcb0000286">The position is that the Legislative Council amended the bill and then transmitted it to the house. The house agreed to amendments Nos 2, 4, 5 and 7 and disagreed to amendments Nos 1, 3 and 6. Amendment No. 1 extends the right to make a victim impact statement in person to a wide range of summary offences against the person. Amendment No. 3 gives the victim a right to determine the form of any community service imposed. Amendment No. 6 limits the Commissioner for Victims Rights' exemption from FOI legislation. The government is opposed to all of these amendments. The reason for that was thoroughly canvassed in debate before the council, and there is no point in rehashing it all again.</text>
