I move:

That this bill be now read a second time.

Today I also introduce the second bill in the package of bills to amend the National Vocational Education and Training Regulator legislation—the National Vocational Education and Training Regulator (Charges) Amendment (Annual Registration Charge) Bill 2017.

As I outlined in the principal bill, the bills combine to ensure ASQA is sufficiently resourced to continue its broad ranging compliance monitoring activities and operate as a high performing regulator.

I commend the bill.

Debate adjourned.
