257—2
The Governance and Administration Committee has examined the Statutes Amendment Bill (No 2) and recommends that it be passed with the amendments shown.
This is an omnibus bill that would amend various statutes. It is designed to provide a legislative vehicle for minor, technical, and non-controversial amendments to existing legislation.
Part 1 of the bill seeks to amend the Animal Welfare Act 1999 to explicitly allow live-capture animal traps to be remotely monitored.
Clause 4, new section 36(1)﻿(b)﻿(i), provides an example of an electronic system for monitoring traps remotely. We recommend rewording this clause to clarify that the electronic monitoring system envisaged in the bill would include a system of capture sensors and a wireless communication network.
We also recommend amending clause 4, new section 36(1)﻿(b)﻿(ii), to replace the words “details of any animals captured” with “the fact that an animal has been captured” . The intent of this clause is to ensure that people promptly attend to the welfare of animals in traps. We consider that our proposed wording would make this obligation clearer.
We recommend inserting new Part 1A to amend the Anti-Money Laundering and Countering Financing of Terrorism Act 2009.
These amendments would allow a reporting entity that is structured as a partnership to appoint a partner as a compliance officer, regardless of whether the entity has any employees. Currently, the Act requires that a compliance officer be an employee of the reporting entity. If a reporting entity has no employees, it can appoint a person to be a compliance officer. Often a partner in a firm is the most appropriate person to be the compliance officer, but partners are not employees.
Our new Part 1A would also clarify that a partnership is liable for the same penalties as body corporates for criminal offending or a civil liability act.
Part 2 of the bill would amend the Biosecurity Act 1993 regarding import health standards (IHS).
We recommend amending clause 8, new sections 24B(5A) and 24B(9), to clarify that the “goods” referred to in this clause would include one or more goods covered by the standard.
We recommend amending clause 8, new section 24B(5B), to clarify that an IHS could be suspended because of the type of good, or because of where the good was imported from.
Part 5 of the bill would amend the Children, Young Persons, and Their Families Act 1989. The name of this Act was changed in 2017 to the Oranga Tamariki Act 1989. To include the Act’s updated name, we recommend replacing Part 5 with new part 19A.
Part 20 of the bill seeks to amend the Parole Act 2002 to align the treatment of interim supervision orders and extended supervision orders. Currently, the Act allows for an arrest without warrant to be made if there has been a breach of an extended supervision order. We recommend inserting new clause 60A. This would allow an arrest without warrant to be made for a breach of an interim supervision order.
Part 24 of the bill seeks to amend the Public Finance Act 1989. We recommend removing clauses 76 and 77. These clauses would allow Reserve Boards to be exempt from auditing requirements, except when the benefit from public accountability outweighs the cost. We consider that these amendments would more appropriately be made in conservation legislation which is currently under development.
We recommend removing Part 25 of the bill. These amendments would change Archives New Zealand’s name to the National Archives of New Zealand. We do not consider that this name change is necessary at this time.
Part 27 of the bill seeks to amend the State-Owned Enterprises Act 1986. These amendments would require State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs) to publish accountability documents online after they have been provided to the Minister. We recommend amending clause 95, new section 16A(1), to include half-yearly reports in the list of documents SOEs must publish. We consider that these are accountability documents, and publishing them would ensure transparency and accountability in reporting.
We recommend removing Part 29 of the bill. These amendments would give power once held by the Chief Inspector—a role which no longer exists under the Weights and Measures Act 1987—to the chief executive of the department responsible for administering the Act. We do not consider that these amendments are necessary. The change they would enable has already been achieved through the editorial power possessed by the Chief Parliamentary Counsel under the Legislation Act 2012.
The Statutes Amendment Bill (No 2) was referred to the committee on 28 November 2017. The closing date for submissions was 23 February 2018. We received and considered one written submission.
