The amendment seeks to put in place a specific timeframe within which the Act should be reviewed. I suggest that there are ways, other than setting a particular timeframe, of ensuring legislation is kept under review. For this reason, I would be reluctant to include a specific timeframe in primary legislation. There are many ways in which the Act can be kept under review. This committee has a role in that regard.
