I move:

(1) Schedule 3, item 2, page 31 (line 21), omit "20 September 2003", substitute "1 July 1991".

Statement pursuant to the order of   the Senate of 26 June 2000

Amendment (1)

Amendment (1) is framed as a request because it amends the bill to increase the period during which debts may relate for resolution payments under the Income Apportionment Resolution Scheme. This expands eligibility for resolution payments, in turn increasing expenditure under the appropriation proposed by Schedule 4 to the bill.

Statement by the Clerk of the Senate pursuant to the order of the Senate of 26 June 2000

Amendment (1)

If the effect of the amendment is to increase expenditure under the standing appropriation proposed by Schedule 4 to the bill, then it is in accordance with the precedents of the Senate that the amendment be moved as a request.
