Changes to Progrogation and Extended Sessions
Procedure and Privileges Committee (2001 - 2005)· 23 October 2003general_report
The WA Procedure and Privileges Committee report examines changes needed to Legislative Assembly procedures due to the move away from annual prorogation of Parliament. It recommends changes to standing orders and legislation to ensure smooth operation with extended sessions, including Premier's statements, notice paper management, and committee operations.
Impact
The changes affect Members of Parliament, parliamentary staff, and potentially the public through changes to legislative processes and scrutiny of government actions. The Attorney General's office is tasked with reviewing disallowance provisions.
