I give notice that, on the next day of sitting, I shall move:

(1) That the following matter be referred to the Committee of Privileges for inquiry and report:

Whether there was any unauthorised disclosure of the draft report of the Select Committee on Electricity Prices and, if so, whether any contempt was committed in that regard.

(2) That, for the purpose of this inquiry, the Committee of Privileges have power to consider and make use of the minutes of private meetings of the Select Committee on Electricity Prices, correspondence referred to in paragraphs 7.6 to 7.8 of the committee's report and any other document relevant to the question of possible unauthorised disclosure of the committee's draft report.
