My second amendment relates to clause 10, which is about the membership constituting three members nominated by the ACTU and three members nominated by the ACCI. I move amendment (2):

(2)    Clause 10, page 9 (lines 9 to 12), omit paragraphs (1)(d) and (e), substitute:

             (d)    3 members nominated by the Australian Council of Trade Unions;

             (e)    3 members nominated by the Australian Chamber of Commerce and Industry;

This amendment is to ensure that there is a genuine partnership between the peak body of employees and the peak body of employers in this country, given their previous involvement in the administration of occupational health and safety legislation in this country.
