by leave—In the intervening period since we last discussed the report of the Selection of Bills Committee my office has had contact with Senator Ludlam’s office. I understand that they will accept the report as is, with one amendment—and that is that the reporting date of item 2(b), the provisions of the National Radioactive Waste Management Bill, be 30 April. As I moved the motion, it would be useful if Senator Parry moved the amendment and then we could proceed.

I move:

Omit all words after “add”, insert “but, in respect of the National Radioactive Waste Management Bill 2010, the Legal and Constitutional Affairs Legislation Committee report by 30 April 2010”.

Question agreed to.

Original question, as amended, agreed to.
