What was decided
The majority voted in favour of keeping schedule 1 in the bill. In other words, they voted "that schedule 1 stand as printed."
What is schedule 1?
According to the bills digest, schedule 1 deals with the changes to the giving of notices and other documents:
- This includes introducing a substantial compliance framework to make clear that strict adherence to the relevant statutory requirements for the provision of documents is not required in all situations.
- These proposed amendments appear to primarily be aimed at reducing litigation founded on technical or inconsequential disputes over the giving of documents or their precise wording.
