Civil Registration Bill 2003: Committee Stage (Resumed).

 

7:00 pm

Mary Henry (Independent)

I take Senator Mansergh's point about "may" being the word that is usually used in legislation, but I am concerned about the use of the word "shall" in section 35. "May" is the word that is usually inserted, so why has the word "shall" been inserted in section 35?
