16th Jun 2021, 10:38 AM – Senate Transport Security Amendment (Serious Crime) Bill 2020 - in Committee - Commencement
Summary
EditThe majority voted against amendment (1) on sheet 1117, introduced by NSW Senator Kristina Keneally (Labor), which means they failed.
The amendment would have linked the commencement of this bill to Senator Keneally's private member's bill, the Migration Amendment (New Maritime Crew Visas) Bill 2020, which proposes amendments to the maritime crew visa.
What does the bill do?
The bill was introduced in order to:
- prevent the use of aviation and maritime transport or offshore facilities in connection with serious crime;
- establish a regulatory framework to implement harmonised eligibility criteria for the aviation security identification card (ASIC) and maritime security identification card (MSIC) schemes;
- clarify and align the legislative basis for undertaking security checking of ASIC and MSIC applicants and holders;
- provide for regulations to prescribe penalties for offences; and
- insert an additional severability provision to provide guidance to a court as to Parliament’s intention.
