SpeechDr JIAN YANG (National): Now indeed as the Hon Dr Nick Smith mentioned it is very unusual to see a Supplementary Order Paper (SOP) as thick as this. I myself of course have been here for nine years—the first time I've seen an SOP this thick. This is largely because the Governance and Administration Committee could not report the bill back to the House. Now the Minister mentioned the process. Also I understand you ruled that you know we spent some time on this. But as the chair of the select committee I think I should clarify a few points really.Now I asked for submissions the following day the day after the committee received the particular bill and then it coincided with Christmas and New Year and then we had COVID-19 so we lost a few meeting days. Then we really tried hard to meet our deadline. We tried very hard to have an extension. I have to say the officials worked very hard were very very patient—and Dr Nick Smith actually also was very patient and worked very very hard—and they went through all the details of this particular bill. I have to say the bill itself—we support the intention; it's very important. And the honest thing is that because it is so important so complex it's a generational change bill so therefore we thought it needed more time. I'll give you an example of this. Indeed many of these changes here are based on recommendations from officials and the committee itself and we did support most of the recommendations but there are points we thought we should have more time to talk about. One particular point is for example the Chief Human Rights Commissioner. They mentioned that they would like to have a particular clause on this but this is not included in this particular SOP.So there are points we thought we should have more time to go through to examine and that we didn't really have a chance to talk about—points like whether we should have a deputy commissioner to replace one particular chief executive you know under circumstances and for how long. We did have discussion but in the end we were not able to finalise some particular points. So that is why we believe that this particular SOP indeed has some flaws because we do think that we were unable to have the time to examine carefully some particular points.As I mentioned really this is a very important bill. We spent some time but we lost some time during the six-month period and just two or three more weeks would really have enabled us to go through all the details to improve the bill and to really make it a bill which makes a generational change.Now I support the vision like the commissioner's Commissioner Peter Hughes and it's a very good vision a modern agile system which I believe is necessary for us. But when you have to rush and in the end can't really have what we would call a perfect bill then that's a missed opportunity. So that's why we believe that indeed as Dr Nick Smith mentioned we would really support having more time to go through all the details. But unfortunately of course we are not able to do so. But having said that I do agree that this bill's intention is good and there are many changes which we support.But here with this one particular SOP with so many points it's just a rush under urgency. We don't think that it really will serve this bill well. So that's why we believe that we need more time. I hope that the Minister will be able to explain more points in more questions and I believe that the committee should have that opportunity to examine the particular bill. I think that this particular bill with more time and with more careful consideration would be a much much better bill. Thank you Madam Chairperson.
