        <text continued="true" id="202506041e8f0620034f4453a0000362">The Social Development Committee tabled its 49<sup>th</sup> report and inquiry into the Potential for a Human Rights Act for South Australia on 29 April 2025. As I noted in the report, the committee received many submissions to its inquiry. Submission No. 112 discussed the Victorian Charter of Human Rights and Responsibilities Act 2006. The submission advised the committee that a private member's bill, namely, the Victorian Charter of Human Rights and Responsibilities Amendment (Protection from Torture and Slavery) Bill 2023, had amended the Victorian charter. On page 70, the report of the committee refers to that information on the Victorian charter, as provided to the committee in evidence received.</text>
        <text id="202506041e8f0620034f4453a0000363">The committee subsequently discovered that the bill had not been passed and the Victorian charter had not been amended. The committee was provided with a corrected submission by the submitters and, accordingly, the committee substitutes the relevant passage on page 70 of the report with the corrigendum, as tabled on 3 June 2025. I commend the corrigendum to the committee and the council.</text>
