The Debate
What different members said when this bill was debated:
Alister Henskens LIB
“So uncontroversial and so minor are the amendments of the bill, particularly now in its amended form, that the Hon. Susan Carter was unable to give one of her usual learned treatises in her contribution in the other place. I have checked that the amendments that were made in the other place have been incorporated in the bill now before the House. The Opposition supports the bill.”
David Saliba ALP
“I support the Statute Law (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2024. The main purpose of the bill is to make a range of amendments to 26 Acts and regulations. The bill is a result of the Statute Law Revision Program, herein known as the SLR program, which involves regular and ongoing review of the New South Wales statute book to rectify any issues that are identified for amendment.”
Jo Haylen ALP
“I thank members for their contributions to debate and the Opposition for its constructive engagement to progress this important bill.”

Second Reading Speech, Statute Law (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2024
The Hon. JOHN GRAHAM, Minister for Roads — 2024-06-06
The Statute Law (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2024 continues the Statute Law Revision Program. I am sure members will be familiar with the program, which has been in place for 40 years. The program produces statute law revision bills, like this bill, which have featured in most sessions of Parliament since 1984. Statute law revision bills are an effective method for making minor policy changes. They also serve as an important mechanism to maintain the quality of the New South Wales statute book. This bill does so by updating references arising from machinery of government changes, removing typographical errors, updating cross-references and repealing redundant provisions.
