Defamation Bill 2006: Committee Stage (Resumed)
12:00 pm
Maurice Hayes (Independent)
I agree with Senator Norris about the clumsiness of paragraph (a) and I believe the Minister should revise his opinion of Victorian drafters. They were much better and clearer than what we are getting now. Surely the point of concern is covered by subsection (2)(b)(i) and (ii). That clarifies the position reasonably well in the way the Minister is doing.
