Parliamentary Committees

Select Committee on the Effectiveness of the Current System of Parliamentary Committees

Adjourned debate on motion of Hon. C. Bonaros:

That a message be sent to the House of Assembly seeking permission for the Clerk of the House of Assembly to attend and give evidence before the Select Committee of the Legislative Council on the Effectiveness of the Current System of Parliamentary Committees.

(Continued from 11 November 2020.)

The Hon. R.I. LUCAS (Treasurer) (17:02): This is essentially a procedural motion. The Hon. Ms Bonaros some time ago moved this motion. I was unaware at the time that it was introduced. I was aware of it, being on the committee, but I was unaware of what might be the attitude of the Clerk of the House of Assembly and my colleagues in the House of Assembly. I have now satisfied myself and been advised that, (a) the Clerk of the House of Assembly has no objection and, (b) my colleagues in the House of Assembly also have no objection, so with that I indicate the government support for the motion.

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Leader of the Opposition) (17:02): I feel of my own volition that I should place on the record that the opposition supports this motion.

The Hon. C. BONAROS (17:02): On behalf of the committee, I am very appreciative of the support.

Motion carried.
