Procedure and Privileges Committee (2001 - 2005)· 19 June 2003general_report

This 2003 WA parliamentary report by the Procedure and Privileges Committee examines the use of video-conferencing by Legislative Assembly committees. It recommends amendments to Standing Orders to allow video-conferencing for committee meetings and hearings, including quorum participation. The report also addresses procedural rules, in camera evidence, and privilege for witnesses outside WA.

Impact

Members of Parliament, committee staff, witnesses, and the public are affected. The changes aim to improve accessibility and efficiency of committee proceedings, particularly for regional members and interstate/international witnesses.
