Items in Private

I welcome members to the Subordinate Legislation Committee's 16th meeting of 2005. I have received no apologies, so I expect Gordon Jackson to arrive at some point.

Adam Ingram is also expected.

I thank Christine May for adding that.

Agenda item 1 is consideration of whether the committee agrees to take items 8 and 9 in private. Both items relate to the draft report on our inquiry into the regulatory framework. Item 8 concerns a paper on the Canberra conference and item 9 involves considering themes for the draft report and making the first stage of the report ready. Quite a lot of papers must be examined and we are at a draft stage, so in keeping with normal committee work, I ask the committee to take the items in private. Is that agreed?

Members indicated agreement.

The Canberra paper will be part of the inquiry report—it is not a separate report.

It is not.

In that case, the decision is all right.
