Page: 4116


    Report: Health Impacts of Air Pollution in the Sydney Basin

    The Hon. Robyn Parker, as Chair, tabled report No. 22, entitled "Health Impacts of Air Pollution in the Sydney Basin", dated November 2006, together with transcripts of evidence, tabled documents, submissions, correspondence and answers to questions taken on notice.

    Report ordered to be printed.

    The Hon. ROBYN PARKER [11.05 a.m.]: I move:

    That the House take note of the report.

    I inform the House that I am now the Chair of General Purpose Standing Committee No. 2. The Hon. Patricia Forsythe was the former chair and I thank her for her contribution to this committee. The committee has worked hard on this report. It is an excellent committee whose members have worked together co-operatively to come up with sensible, reasonable and rational recommendations. I believe it is an example of a general purpose standing committee working well. I urge all members to read the report. It contains some great recommendations. I acknowledge and thank the committee staff, particularly Simon Johnston, Jocelyn Yem and Rachel Callinan, for their contributions to this report. It is a comprehensive report that makes some great recommendations. I hope the Government will take note of the report.

    Debate adjourned on motion by the Hon. Robyn Parker.
