I rise on behalf of ACT in support of the Annual Reporting and Audit Time Frames Extensions Legislation Bill. I take issue with some of the claims of my friends in the National Party. I don't think that this will dilute the standards of auditing. What it will do is allow some of the report-back dates for the Auditor-General to be later than they would otherwise be, but I think it's well worth canvassing just why we are in this situation.
