Labor will be supporting the Statute Update (Regulations References) Bill 2020. This bill makes a series of minor technical changes to 10 principal acts to update references to regulations. It appears that the changes made by this bill really are, as the government claims in its explanatory memorandum, minor technical changes that constitute no more than statutory housekeeping. However, given the government's track record, we did have to check. I commend the bill to the Senate.
