Auctioneering Profession: Motion.
The review of any profession is, however, a matter which requires the utmost care and consideration and other parties which have an obvious interest in the role of the auctioneering profession will need to be involved. Discussions will be needed with the profession and all interested parties to clarify the issues involved. At the same time, the Minister would also be mindful that any reform of the profession should not introduce a level of red tape or bureaucracy for the sake of it. The Minister considers that any regulatory control to be imposed on the profession should improve matters rather than disimprove matters for all concerned. I have noted the points made by Senators during the debate and will bring them to the Minister's attention.
