Australian Prudential Regulation Authority

Ross Cadell

At the request of Senator Bragg, I move:

That there be laid on the table by the Minister representing the Treasurer, by no later than midday on Tuesday, 26 November 2024, the following:

(a) any briefs prepared by the General Counsel of the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA) for the APRA Executive in relation to operation of section 56 of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 (SIS Act) since December 2020;

(b) any briefs prepared by the General Counsel of APRA for the APRA executive in relation to APRA's appearance in legal proceedings brought by superannuation trustees seeking the advice of the court on trust deed changes relating to amendments to section 56 of the SIS Act; and

(c) any submissions made by APRA to a supreme court of any state or territory as part of legal proceedings brought by superannuation trustees seeking the advice of the court on trust deed changes relating to amendments to section 56 of the SIS Act.

Andrew McLachlan

The question is that the motion be agreed to.

A division having been called and the bells being rung—

Anne Ruston

Can we cancel?

Anthony Chisholm

No, we oppose it.

Andrew McLachlan

I can cancel if there's concurrence.

I'll cancel the division. Let me put the question again. The question is that the motion moved by Senator Cadell, standing in the name of Senator Bragg, for an order for the production of documents of the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority be agreed to.
