Business Statement
Next week the House is in a 1-week adjournment. In the week starting Tuesday, 14 March, priority will probably be given to the second readings of the Education Amendment Bill, the Legal Services Amendment Bill (No 2), the Judicature Amendment Bill (No 3), the Criminal Procedure Bill, the Taxation (Depreciation, Payment Dates, Alignment, FBT, and Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill, and the Land Transport Amendment Bill. Wednesday will be a members’ day.
Is it the intention of the Leader of the House to seek urgency in the first week back to pass the Land Transport Amendment Bill?
Not at this stage, but I am certainly open to discussions with other parties, particularly if there is the possibility of arriving at broad consensus within the select committee around changes to the bill.
