I move Greens amendment (1) on sheet 5636:
(1) [Amendment to Senator Troeth’s amendment (1) on sheet 5632]
At the end of paragraph (g) of the definition of terrorism laws, add:
; (h) any other law or part of a law of the Commonwealth under which a power is conferred or a liability is established in connection with, either directly or indirectly, a terrorist act (whether or not a terrorist act has occurred or will occur).
I would like to thank Senator Troeth for supporting this amendment. We wanted, essentially, to provide more guidance to the reviewer than we thought was written up in the original wording of ‘is not limited to’.
