by leave—I move:

That Mr Bandt be appointed a supplementary member of the Standing Committee on Economics for the purpose of the committee’s Review of the Reserve Bank Annual Report 2011; the Standing Committee on Education and Employment for the purpose of the committee’s inquiry into the Fair Work Amendment (Better Work/Life Balance) Bill 2012; and the Standing Committee on Social Policy and Legal Affairs for the purpose of the committee’s inquiries into the Marriage Amendment Bill 2012 and the Marriage Equality Amendment Bill 2010.
