Bidois DanDAN BIDOIS (National—Northcote): Oh I'm very happy to hear that and a big shout-out to every Northcote voter that is watching tonight. It is a pleasure to continue this discussion on the Social Workers Registration Legislation Bill. Before I get into what I want to talk about I do want to refute the notion from Jan Logie the previous speaker that there is a lot of overlap and no new content coming up in this debate. I do have a number of new questions that I don't feel have been addressed. So I think that this is an important debate to have and had we had this bill in select committee we would have been able to have these types of debates and in-depth discussions in a much more substantial way. I do want to thank the Minister in the chair Carmel Sepuloni. She has provided some good answers that have shed light on for example why she has set it up so that the Social Workers Registration Board will look after the scope of practice" definition. I do still disagree with her on why but I understand her case in that respect. She's also provided an answer to my other question around essentially who she has consulted in putting together these scopes of practice but I do want to come back to this notion of the board and the function of the board and in particular in relation to the ways in which social workers can go about having input to the scopes of practice and the prescribed qualifications. I do agree with the member from the Green Party who said before that we wanted to make sure it's in the hands of the sector and that the sector takes ownership of the definitions and the scopes of practice but I do have some questions to ask the Minister in the chair around the function and the process that social workers will need to make if they want to contribute to these scopes of practice definitions. So question No. 1 that I have for the Minister is certainly around how long a social worker can expect to wait to be able to change certain scopes within their scopes of practice. I do want to ask the Minister if the board has in fact been tasked with extra resources because in my opinion if we are now saying that the board is going to take a substantially increased role in defining the scopes of practice and reviewing the qualifications there is a significant funding and resource requirement around that. So I would like to ask the Minister in the chair what extra resources are being provided to the board to assist with what will no doubt be an influx of applications and assistance on that matter. Finally the last question I want to ask in relation to the board is whether the personnel on the board are appropriately equipped to deal with the changes that have been proposed on Supplementary Order Paper 187 because as we've got outlined in the scope in proposed new sections 5A 5B and 5C in new clause 6A on the Supplementary Order Paper there is quite a substantial increase in mandate for the Social Workers Registration Board with respect to defining their scopes of practice and their qualifications. I do have concerns that perhaps this organisation is not set up to look after that. So those are the questions that I have for the Minister in the chair. Again I want to reiterate that we are very supportive of this bill but we would have liked to have had this discussion in a select committee setting and that's why we raise them today. I do have a French word that I want to—and it's not my last name; it is the word "Parlement". So "parler" in French means to discuss and "ment" is a denotation of action. So we are here to discuss and to make sure that we get collective action on this bill."
