Parliament is set to pass changes to the Employment Relations Act today.
Following Question Time MPs will return to the Address in Reply debate with five hours and 33 minutes remaining. This
will include the Maiden Speeches of the following MPs (approximate times):
4.30pm Jono Naylor
4.45pm Alastair Scott
5.00pm Brett Hudson

It is expected the debate will be adjourned and MPs will debate the third reading of the Employment Relations Amendment Bill, which is opposed by all parties except National, ACT and United Future.
This will be followed by the Accounting Infrastructure Reform Bill divided into four bills. It has the support of all parties.
If time allows MPs will return to the committee stage of the Gambling Amendment Bill (No 2).
