31 PRESENTATION OF SPEAKER

Mr Speaker reported that the Assembly had been to Government House where he had informed His Excellency the Governor that, immediately after the opening of Parliament today, the Legislative Assembly, in the exercise of their undoubted right, had proceeded to the election of their Speaker, that the choice had fallen upon him, and that he had to present himself to His Excellency as their Speaker—whereupon His Excellency was pleased to offer him his congratulations.

That he had then, in the name and on behalf of the House, laid claim to all their undoubted rights and privileges, particularly to freedom of speech in debate, to free access to His Excellency when occasion should require, and asked that the most favourable construction should, on all occasions, be put upon their language and proceedings; to all of which His Excellency readily assented.

Mr Speaker again expressed his appreciation for the honour the House had been pleased to confer upon him. -

32 PRIVILEGE—COMMUNICATIONS BETWEEN MEMBERS AND OFFICERS OF THE HOUSE

At the direction of the Speaker, the Clerk reported to the House that Mr Max Smith, a former Member of the Legislative Assembly, was a defendant in defamation proceedings arising from the allegedly unauthorised issuing of a press release at variance with a speech made by Mr Smith in this House.

Defendant Smith had objected to the inspection by the plaintiff of letters passing from Smith to the Speaker, and letters passing separately both from the Speaker and the Clerk of the Legislative Assembly to Smith, relating to parliamentary privilege. Defendant Smith had claimed the letters, which came into existence as a result of the proceedings, were subject to parliamentary privilege.

At the direction of Speaker Kelly, the Clerk had sought the Advice of the Crown Solicitor as to whether the letters could be the subject of a claim for parliamentary privilege, in relation to the question of discovery and inspection of documents.

The Crown Advocate had subsequently advised that a claim that the abovementioned letters were privileged could only be sustained where the correspondence could fairly be described as integral to the working of the Parliament. The Crown Advocate believed that it was unlikely that the Courts would regard the advice given by the Speaker in the Smith case as being sufficiently necessary to discharging the functions of the Parliament to attract privilege. Furthermore, on legal precedent, he did not regard the Speaker's advising in the present case as attracting either parliamentary privilege or public interest immunity.

The Crown Advocate had suggested that in those cases where the Speaker, or the Clerk on his behalf (and by extension Members) wished to maintain a claim that would prevent disclosure of an advising relating to the workings of Parliament, the correspondence should be declared to be confidential. Such a declaration of confidentiality, however, would only be one aspect in the overall consideration by the Courts of public interest and could be no guarantee that the protection of confidentiality would be invoked.

When the matter had been listed before Mr Justice Yeldham, the defendant had indicated that he wished to waive his claim to parliamentary privilege.

Honourable Members who had been Members of the 48th Parliament would recall that on 31 March 1987, the motion of the then Member for Camden, Mr John Fahey, now Minister for Industrial Relations and Employment and Minister Assisting the Premier—

That this House reasserts its privileges of representation of constituents by members, including the right of confidentiality of communication between member and constituent, as propounded in the Report of the Select Committee on Parliamentary Privilege of the House of Commons

had been negatived.

33 DETERMINATION OF CONTRAVENTION OF CONSTITUTION (DIS-CLOSURES BY MEMBERS) REGULATION 1983—STATEMENT BY SPEAKER

Mr Speaker reported that on 15 February 1988, the Clerk, at the direction of Speaker Kelly, had sought the Advice of the Crown Solicitor as to whether the Honourable Member for Wollongong had contravened the Constitution (Disclosures by Members) Regulation 1983, by failing to include certain lands in his various returns.

The Crown Solicitor had advised in essence that it was impossible to establish that Mr Arkell had been guilty of any wilful contravention of the regulation, as required by section 14A (2) of the Constitution Act.

Mr Speaker stated that since the Constitution (Disclosures by Members) Regulation 1983, had come into effect, it had become the practice for Members to lodge additional returns amplifying or clarifying original returns. The Member for Wollongong had subsequently lodged such an additional return, clarifying his land holdings.

Following the receipt of the Advice of the Crown Solicitor, the Clerk had recommended to Speaker Kelly that the matter of whether the Member for Wollongong had contravened the Constitution (Disclosures by Members) Regulation 1983, should not be pursued. Speaker Kelly had accepted this recommendation, as had the Speaker.

The Speaker drew the attention of all Honourable Members to the Advice of the Crown Solicitor that under the legislation no provision has been made for any form of inquiry to determine whether a contravention of the regulation had been made by a Member. The Crown Solicitor had also advised that there were no powers conferred on the Clerk (as the person compiling and maintaining the Register) or the Speaker to conduct any form of inquiry to which witnesses might be compelled to attend and give evidence under oath. The Crown Solicitor had further advised that neither the Clerk nor the Speaker were given power by the regulation to correct the Register.

34 STANDING ORDERS AND PROCEDURE COMMITTEE

Mr Dowd moved (by leave),

That the Standing Orders and Procedure Committee be appointed to inquire into, and if considered advisable, make recommendations to the Legislative Assembly, respecting the Standing Orders, rules, usages, customs, practice and procedures of the Legislative Assembl'.

That such Committee consist of The Speaker, Mr Aquilina, Mr Beckroge, Mr Jeffery, Mr Moore, Mr Phillips, Dr Refshauge, Mr Webster, Mr Whelan and the mover.

That the Committee have leave to sit during the sittings of the House.

Question put and passed.

14 EDUCATION AND PUBLIC INSTRUCTION (AMENDMEND BILL

The Order of the Day having been read, Mr Speaker left the Chair and the House resolved itself into a Committee of the Whole for the consideration of the amendment made by the Legislative Council in the bill. Mr Speaker resumed the Chair, and the Chairman reported that the Committee had disagreed with the Council's amendment.

On motion of Mr Dowd, the Report was adopted. On motion of Mr Dowd, the following message sent to the Legislative Council—

Mr PRESIDENT The Legislative Assembly having had under consideration the Legislative Council's Message, dated I June 1988, requesting its concurrence in the amendment made by the Council in the Education and Public Instruction (Amendment) Bill, acquaints the Legislative Council as follows—

Page 127: VOTES AND PROCEEDINGS - Parliament of NSW · Fahey, John Joseph ... Murray, John Henry ..... Drummoyne Murray ... VOTES AND PROCEEDINGS OF THE LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY 27 April 1988

131 VOTES AND PROCEEDINGS OF THE LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY

3 June 1988

Amendment— "(2) the Director-General may suspend or expel a child of any age from a State school, but the child may appeal in writing to the Minister.

(3) the Minister may, on such an appeal— confirm or revoke the suspension or expulsion; or

(b) revoke the expulsion and suspend the child instead.

(4) Written reasons shall be given for a decision to suspend or expel the child or to confirm the suspension or expulsion of the child."—disagrees with the amendment because:

while the Minister has general oversight of student discipline in State schools, he should not be dealing with issues relating to individual students;

the question of suspension and expulsion is essentially a management function; the decision should be taken as close as possible to the school where the problems

take place; an appeal to the Minister will politicize the process; the Director-General of Education will delegate his power on expulsion to the

Regional Director but will retain a final right of appeal.

And the Assembly requests the concurrence of the Legislative Council in its disagreement from the Council's amendment in the Bill.

Legislative Assembly K. R. ROZZOLI 3 June 1988 Speaker

15 ADJOURNMENT Mr Dowd moved, That this House do now adjourn.

Question put and passed. The House adjourned accordingly at 5.29 p.m., until Tuesday, 2 August 1988, at 2.15 p.m.

16 NOTICE OF MOTION After time prescribed by Standing Orders—Mr Whelan.

17 ADJOURNMENT UNDER STANDING ORDER 49 Mr Speaker stated that he had received from the honourable member for Waverley, Mr Page, a notice that he desired to move the adjournment of the House to discuss the tenant crisis in Millers Point.

Points of Order: Mr Speaker (in recognising the point of order of the honourable member for Blacktown that because this matter concerned some Department of Housing tenants in the State, the matter could apply to any Department of Housing tenant in the State) said that if such a liberal interpretation were accepted, it would be possible for Standing Order 49 matters to be raised every day. The argument could be put that every matter that might affect one person in the State could affect another person in the State and therefore could be considered to fall within the ambit of a matter of sufficient public importance. The honourable member for Blacktown had convinced the Speaker that this motion dealt with a local matter. The Speaker therefore ruled the motion out of order.

18 SPECIAL ADJOURNMENT Ordered, on the motion of Mr Dowd, That this House at its rising this day do adjourn until Wednesday, 17 August 1988, at 2.15 p.m.

19 SUSPENSION OF STANDING ORDERS Ordered, on motion of Mr Dowd (by leave), That so much of the Standing Orders be suspended as would preclude the Independent Commission Against Corruption (Amendment) Bill being intrbduced and passed through all stages in one day.

20 INDEPENDENT COMMISSION AGAINST CORRUPTION (AMENDMEND BILL

Mr Dowd, on behalf of Mr Greiner, moved pursuant to notice, That leave be given to bring in a bill for an Act to amend the Independent Commission Against Corruption Act 1988 in relation to legal and religious professional privilege, parliamentary privilege, the divulging of evidence in connection with certain criminal proceedings, eligibility for appointment as Commissioner or Assistant Commissioner and other thatters. .

Question put and passed.
