Health Identifier Service Legislation Update – 5pm 22 June 2010.

As I type the Live Senate Red is still wandering down its agenda and does not seem very close to the HI Service Bill.
Have a look here to see the current state of play.
The Senate has still to get through these 2 bills, and some other stuff, before starting on the HI Service.
No. 1–Renewable Energy (Electricity) Amendment Bill 2010 [homepage]
Govt amendments - sheet AL260
Agreed to: Nos 1 to 8
AG amendments - sheet 6114
Withdrawn: No. 2
Before the committee: Nos 1, 4 and 9
Renewable Energy (Electricity) (Charge) Amendment Bill 2010 [homepage]
Renewable Energy (Electricity) (Small-scale Technology Shortfall Charge) Bill 2010 [homepage]
No. 2–Family Assistance Legislation Amendment (Child Care Budget Measures) Bill 2010 [homepage] – Resumption of second reading debate
Then we get to:
No. 3–Healthcare Identifiers Bill 2010 [homepage]
Healthcare Identifiers (Consequential Amendments) Bill 2010 [homepage]
– Resumption of second reading debate
Since the Senate rises at around 7.00pm it might be tomorrow before we see an outcome.
David.
