Judiciary committee to strike section 37, request draft 8.1 and reconvene at 11:30
Summary
A staff member told the Judiciary committee it will remove section 37 from the current text because of an issue involving s109, ask Legislative Council for a revised draft numbered 8.1, and reconvene at 11:30; members also discussed whether to post a clean copy online or provide hard copies.
A staff member for the Judiciary committee said the panel will strike section 37 from the current text because of an unresolved issue involving “s109,” and will ask Legislative Council for a revised draft numbered 8.1. The staff member said the committee will reconvene at 11:30.
The update came after the staff member reported that “there's an issue with section 37 and s109” and that “it's gonna take longer to address the issue.” The staff member said the committee plans to remove section 37 and obtain draft 8.1 from Legislative Council before reconvening to continue consideration.
Committee members briefly discussed whether they wanted a printed hard copy or a clean copy posted online. One participant said, “I don't need it,” and the staff member asked who would want a hard copy, noting that some members had already indicated they did not need one.
No formal motion or vote was recorded during the update; the actions described were procedural directions to staff. The committee intends to resume its meeting when the revised draft is available.
