Senate debates Electoral and Referendum Amendment (Electoral Integrity and Other Measures) Bill 2006
In Committee
Steve Fielding Victoria, Family First Party

Can I just clarify something here? I thought schedule 1 item 36 in actual fact had very little to do with the opposition’s schedule 1 items 20, 24, 28, 39 to 45, 51 and 52, which are later on. I think that this is a new inserted provision, which Family First will be supporting because it is separate. The issue of closing the rolls after three days rather than after seven is actually to be dealt with further on in the committee process. Can someone clarify that for me to make sure that we are not talking about two separate issues?
