Local Government Electoral Legislation Bill

Good morning. Ata mārie, members. The committee resumes its consideration of the Local Government Electoral Legislation Bill. The question is that Parts 1 to 3, Schedules 1 to 3, and clauses 1 and 2 stand part. I see members are so keen to take a call, especially after the 12 a.m. finish last night!

The question is that Golriz Ghahraman’s amendments to the Minister’s amendments set out on Supplementary Order Paper 358, set out on Supplementary Order Paper 397, be agreed to.

The question is that the Minister’s amendments set out on Supplementary Order Papers 367 and 358 be agreed to.

Golriz Ghahraman’s amendment to insert new Part 1A set out on Supplementary Order Paper 263 is ruled out of order as being outside the scope of this bill.

The committee has considered the Local Government Electoral Legislation Bill and reports it with amendment. I move, That the report be adopted.

Motion agreed to.

Report adopted.

This bill is set down for third reading immediately.
