Mr Speaker has received two messages from the Senate informing the House of the appointment of senators to certain joint committees. As the list of appointments is a lengthy one, I do not propose to read the list to the House. Details will be recorded in the Votes and Proceedings.

The messages read as follows—

In accordance with the Law Enforcement Integrity Commissioner Act 2006, Senator Wright has been appointed a member of the Parliamentary Joint Committee on the Australian Commission for Law Enforcement Integrity;

In accordance with the Australian Securities and Investments Commission Act 2001, Senator Milne has been appointed a member of the Parliamentary Joint Committee on Corporations and Financial Services;

In accordance with the Parliamentary Joint Committee on Law Enforcement Act 2010, Senator Wright has been appointed a member of the Parliamentary Joint Committee on Law Enforcement;

In accordance with the Public Accounts and Audit Committee Act 1951, Senator Milne has been appointed a member of the Joint Committee of Public Accounts and Audit; and

Senator Birmingham has been discharged from the Joint Standing Committee on Electoral Matters for the committee's inquiry into the funding of political parties and election campaigns.
