Child Safety (Prohibited Persons) Bill

Standing Orders Suspension

The DEPUTY SPEAKER: Earlier today, following the introduction and moving of the second reading of the Child Safety (Prohibited Persons) Bill, the house mistakenly ordered that the adjourned debate on the second reading of this bill be taken into consideration on motion. I can advise the house that pursuant to standing order 238:

…if the second reading of the Bill is moved immediately after its first reading, the debate on the Bill is at once adjourned until a future day.

The Hon. J.R. RAU (Enfield—Deputy Premier, Attorney-General, Minister for Justice Reform, Minister for Planning, Minister for Industrial Relations, Minister for Child Protection Reform, Minister for the Public Sector, Minister for Consumer and Business Services, Minister for the City of Adelaide) (15:52): I move, without notice:

That standing orders be so far suspended as to enable me to move a motion forthwith for the rescission of an order.

The DEPUTY SPEAKER: As there is not an absolute majority present, ring the bells.

An absolute majority of the whole number of members being present:

The DEPUTY SPEAKER: A majority is present. The Attorney has moved that standing orders be suspended. Is that seconded?

An honourable member: Yes.

Motion carried.

The Hon. J.R. RAU (Enfield—Deputy Premier, Attorney-General, Minister for Justice Reform, Minister for Planning, Minister for Industrial Relations, Minister for Child Protection Reform, Minister for the Public Sector, Minister for Consumer and Business Services, Minister for the City of Adelaide) (15:54): I move:

Pursuant to order, that the order making the consideration on motion of the adjourned debate on the second reading of the Child Safety (Prohibited Persons) Bill be rescinded.

Motion carried.

The Hon. J.R. RAU (Enfield—Deputy Premier, Attorney-General, Minister for Justice Reform, Minister for Planning, Minister for Industrial Relations, Minister for Child Protection Reform, Minister for the Public Sector, Minister for Consumer and Business Services, Minister for the City of Adelaide) (15:54): I move, without notice:

That standing orders be so far suspended as to enable the passage of the bill through all stages without delay.

Motion carried.

Second Reading

Ms CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (15:55): I move:

That the debate be adjourned.

The Hon. J.R. RAU (Enfield—Deputy Premier, Attorney-General, Minister for Justice Reform, Minister for Planning, Minister for Industrial Relations, Minister for Child Protection Reform, Minister for the Public Sector, Minister for Consumer and Business Services, Minister for the City of Adelaide) (15:56): I note that the deputy leader wants to have this adjourned off until next week. From my point of view, I would have preferred it to be dealt with today. There have been some changes from the original draft, as the deputy leader points out, although I would have thought that we could sort those things out between the houses.

I am mindful of the fact that there has been quite a lot of rhetoric around the place about how important it is for us to move these things through. I just want to make it very clear that, as far as the government is concerned, this can progress now, but if it is required by the opposition that there be an adjournment of this until next week, then as long as everyone understands that is why it is being adjourned until next week, I am fine with that.

Members interjecting:

The DEPUTY SPEAKER: Enough, everybody, enough. The question before the Chair is that the debate be adjourned.

Motion carried.
