Tisch Lindsay: Local Government (Auckland Reorganisation) Bill — In Committee Speaker Recalled In Committee Speaker Recalled In Committee 
[Volume:654;Page:3697] 
The CHAIRPERSON (Lindsay Tisch) 
: There is a further series of transcript amendments in the name of Jeanette Fitzsimons to insert a new Part 4. The first of those proposes to insert new Part 4 “Transition Towards Greater Climate Protection: Amendment to the Resource Management Act 1991”. That amendment is outside the scope of the bill as the bill deals with governance not operational aspects and targets. The next amendment inserts a new Part 4 “Transition to Simplified and Streamlined Dog Control: Amendment to the Dog Control Act 1996”. That amendment is also outside the scope of the bill as the bill deals with governance not operational aspects. 
There is a further amendment in the name of Keith Locke to insert new Part 4 “Transition Agency Liquor Advertising (Television and Radio)”. That amendment is also outside the scope of the bill as the bill deals with governance not operational aspects. 
There is a further amendment in the name of the Hon George Hawkins to insert a new Part 8 “Local Councils” which would establish local councils. That amendment is out of order as being inconsistent with the decision made by the Committee last night. 
Hon Trevor Mallard 
: What? 
The CHAIRPERSON (Lindsay Tisch) 
: The member will have an opportunity to contribute by way of a point of order when I finish. 
There is a further amendment in the name of Moana Mackey to insert a new part 63 “Special Provisions relating to the continuation of obligations in Part 7 of the Local Government Act 2002”. But Subpart 2 of Part 3 of the bill dealt with that issue. Part 3 was dealt with by the Committee. That amendment is therefore out of order. 
There is a further amendment in the name of Carol Beaumont to insert a new Part 163 “Special Provisions relating to the Electoral Act 2001 to apply while this Act is in force” which relates to the Electoral Act and its application to this legislation. Clause 6 in Part 1 of the bill dealt with that issue. Part 1 has been dealt with by the Committee. That amendment is therefore out of order. 
A further amendment in the name of Jacinda Ardern to insert a new Part 32 “Establishment of transitional consultative councils” is out of order as it sets up another body. The bill sets up one body. 
There are further amendments in the name of the Hon George Hawkins to insert a new Part 23 “Special Provisions relating to the Papakura District Council” and a new Part 24 “Special Provisions relating to the Franklin District Council”. Those amendments are out of order as the bill deals with a specific Government structure across all of Auckland. 
There is another amendment in the name of Sue Kedgley to insert a new Part 4 “Transition Agency and Environmental Rights”. That amendment has been ruled out of order as it is outside the scope of the bill. The bill deals with governance and not operational matters. There is another amendment in the name of Sue Kedgley to insert a new Part 4 “Transition Agency Economic Social and Cultural Rights”. This is ruled out of order as it is beyond the scope of the bill as the bill deals with governance and not operational matters. I have ruled that those amendments are out of order as they are outside the scope of the bill.
