Appendix 1

Deferred legislation^[1]

3.1 The committee has deferred its consideration of the National Integrity Commission Bill 2019 [No. 2] and continues to defer its consideration of the Discrimination Free Schools Bill 2018.^[2]

3.2 The committee also continues to defer its consideration of the Quality of Care Amendment (Minimising the Use of Restraints) Principles 2019 [F2019L00511], as it is currently conducting an inquiry into this instrument. The committee notes that the disallowance period for the instrument ends in the House of Representatives on 12 September 2019 and in the Senate on 16 September 2019. The committee notes that the disallowance procedure is the primary mechanism by which the Parliament may exercise control over delegated legislation. As the committee has not yet finalised its inquiry into the instrument, the committee has resolved to place protective notices of motion to disallow the instrument, to extend the disallowance period by a further 15 sitting days in order to protect parliamentary control over the instrument pending completion of the committee's inquiry.
