I move amendment (1) on sheet 1763:

(1) Schedule 1, item 2, page 5 (lines 3 to 11), to be opposed.

Briefly: this amendment ensures that all parts of the National Anti-Corruption Commission Bill 2022 will be subject to review under the Administrative Decisions (Judicial Review) Act. Given the extraordinary powers of the National Anti-Corruption Commission, we believe that it is important that decisions are subject to review in the same way as any other administrative decisions made by government bodies.
