Statutes (Repeals and Minor Amendments) Bill 2001

Legislation Committee (2001 - 2005)· 12 March 2002general_report

The WA Legislation Committee reviewed the Statutes (Repeals and Minor Amendments) Bill 2001, focusing on repealing outdated Acts and making minor amendments. The committee supported most of the bill but raised concerns about the Timber Industry Regulation Act 1926 repeal and amendments to the Tobacco Control Act 1990. They recommended changes to ensure the amendments remained minor and appropriate.

Impact

The recommendations affect the operation of the Western Australian Health Promotion Foundation and the regulation of the timber industry. Changes to penalties under the Health Act 1911 will affect individuals and businesses in the meat industry. Amendments to the Land Administration Act 1997 will affect how revenue from Crown land dealings is handled.
