I move government amendment (1) on sheet PA337:
(1) Clause 2, page 2 (table item 2), omit the table item, substitute:
2. Schedules 1 to 3 | A single day to be fixed by Proclamation. However, if any of the provision(s) do not commence within the period of 6 months beginning on the day on which this Act receives the Royal Assent, they commence on the first day after the end of that period. |
This amends the commencement provisions in relation to schedules 1, 2 and 3 of the bill to provide that these schedules commence on a day to be fixed by proclamation. This amendment is required to ensure the necessary amendments to the Telecommunications (Interceptions) Regulations 1987 are made prior to the commencement of schedules 1, 2 and 3 of the bill. The amendment is technical in nature. I commend the amendment to the committee.
