Legislative Review Committee: Burial and Cremation (Surrender of Interment Rights) Variation Regulations 2021

Mr FULBROOK (Playford) (11:01): I move:

That the report of the committee, on the Burial and Cremation (Surrender of Interment Rights) Variation Regulations 2021, be noted.

The burial and cremation surrender of interment rights regulations I just mentioned were tabled in both houses of parliament on 30 November 2021 and then referred to the committee. The committee raised concerns that these regulations went against two of the committee's current standing scrutiny principles. I gave a notice of motion to disallow the variation regulations as a holding motion on 1 June 2022. A subsequent report has now been prepared, which I ask to be noted by the house today. Given a holding motion remains in the form of a disallowance motion, I intend to keep this in place and allow reasonable time for members to consider the report. I commend the report to the house.

Motion carried.
