Companies (Auditing and Accounting) Bill 2003: Second Stage.
Considerable background work went into the drafting of the Bill. Senator O'Toole chaired the review group, which produced an excellent report. Very few amendments are required, although I have received some submissions, mainly from small companies. Larger companies do not seem to be too concerned about the Bill. I am a member of the Joint Committee on Enterprise and Small Business, which will consider submissions on this Bill in May, prior to Committee Stage.
