Business Statement
Next week in the House the Government will seek to make progress on the remaining stages of the Corrections Bill and the Border Security Bill. If time is available, the first readings will be taken of the Parental Leave and Employment Protection Amendment Bill and the Disabled Persons Employment Promotion (Repeal and Related Matters) Bill. On Tuesday the first item of business will be the debate on the financial reviews of Crown entities, public organisations, and State enterprises, which is a 3-hour debate. Thursday is Budget day.
Could the Leader of the House advise Parliament whether he expects us to be sitting beyond 6 oβclock on Thursday, either in urgency or extraordinary urgency.
I will advise the Business Committee on Tuesday of my intentions. The member can take a very broad hint, given the nature of the Standing Orders.
