Legislation / ORDINARY BILL PROCEDURE / Referral to Main Committee or standing or select committee / Advisory report by standing or select committee

 

Bill referred to select committee

Before 2004 there was only provision for bills to be referred for advisory reports to standing committees. Former standing orders provided for the possible referral of a bill to a select committee immediately following the second reading. No bills were so referred. However, two bills were referred to select committees following the suspension of standing orders. On the first occasion the bill was referred to a select committee during the consideration in detail stage. 1 On the other occasion a bill was referred during the second reading stage, immediately following the Minister’s second reading speech, to a joint select committee. 2
