  Dr Ratnam moved, That this House requires the Legal and Social Issues Committee to inquire into, consider and report, by Tuesday, 5 April 2022, on Part 5 of the Workplace Safety Legislation and Other Matters Amendment Bill 2021, including but not limited to —

  (1) the potential impact of Part 5 on the existing firefighters’ presumptive rights scheme;

  (2) the evidentiary and scientific basis for the proposal to extend firefighters’ presumptive rights to a cohort other than firefighters; and

  (3) the most appropriate mechanism to provide presumptive rights to vehicle and equipment maintenance employees or other employees of Fire Rescue Victoria and the Country Fire Authority.

  This was debated and defeated.
