Senate debates Bills
Land Transport Infrastructure Amendment Bill 2014; In Committee
Doug Cameron NSW, Australian Labor Party, Shadow Minister for Human Services

by leave—I move opposition amendment (6) on sheet 7477 as revised:
(6) Schedule 1, item 20, page 9 (line 8), after “efficiency,”, insert “integration,”.
This is a minor amendment to the matters that the minister may have regard to in deciding to approve an investment project. It will add an integration of transport operations as a factor in approving transport infrastructure projects. We acknowledge Senator Rice's role in this amendment and we believe this amendment improves the criteria without complicating it or confusing it. We prefer this to the amendment that the Australian Greens moved on amendment (7).
