On 19 September 2019, the Speaker received advice from the Chief Government Whip and Ms Steggall nominating members to be members of the Joint Select Committee on Australia's Family Law System. In accordance with standing order 229(b), as the House was not expected to sit for several weeks, the appointment became effective on that date. I now call the minister to move a motion to resolve the membership of the committee.

Luke Howarth Petrie, Liberal Party, Assistant Minister for Community Housing, Homelessness and Community Services

I move:

That Mr KJ Andrews, Dr Martin, Mr LS O'Brien and Ms Steggall be appointed members of the Joint Select Committee on Australia's Family Law System.

Question agreed to.
