Part 2
Legislative
instruments registered with FRLI 16 February – 19 April 2013
Consideration
of legislative instruments
2.1
The committee
has considered 492 legislative instruments registered with the Federal Register
of Legislative Instruments (FRLI) between 16 February 2013 and 19 April
2013. The Committee also considered an instrument previously examined in its First
Report of 2013 and subsequently deferred in its Third Report of 2013.[1]
The full list of instruments scrutinised by the committee can be found in
Appendix 1.
2.2
403 instruments
do not appear to raise any human rights concerns and are accompanied by
statements of compatibility that are adequate.
2.3
74 instruments
do not appear to raise any human rights concerns but are accompanied by
statements of compatibility that do not fully meet the committee's
expectations. As the instruments in question do not appear to raise human
rights compatibility concerns, the committee has written to the relevant
Ministers in a purely advisory capacity providing guidance on the preparation
of statements of compatibility. The committee hopes that this approach will
assist in the preparation of future statements of compatibility that conform
more closely to the committee's expectations.

instruments before forming a view about their compatibility with human rights:
