INTRODUCTION Section 5(2) of the Members of Parliament (Register of Interests) Act 1978 (No. 9223) states:

Every Member who was not a Member of either the Legislative Assembly or the Legislative Council in the Parliament then last past shall, upon taking and subscribing the oath or affirmation as a Member, within 30 days thereafter submit to the Clerk of the Parliaments a primary return.

The primary return required by section 5(2) was prescribed by Schedule 1 to the Members of Parliament (Register of Interests) Regulations 2013 (Statutory Rule No. 4/2013). Those regulations require Members to register their interests by providing information under the following specific classifications:

1. Any income source* which you have, or expect to have, in the 12 months after the date of this return.

2. The name of any company or other body in which you hold an office as director or otherwise at the date of this return.

3. The name or description of any company, partnership, association or other body in which you hold a beneficial interest exceeding $500 in value.

4. The name of any political party, body or association or trade or professional organization of which you are a member at the date of this return.

5. A concise description of any trust in which you hold a beneficial interest. 6. A concise description of any trust of which you are trustee and in which a member

of your family holds a beneficial interest. 7. The address or description of any land in which you hold a beneficial interest (other

than by way of security for a debt). 8. Any other substantial interest (whether of a pecuniary nature or not) held by you or

a member of your family of which you are aware and that you consider might appear to raise a material conflict with your public duty as a Member.

* “income source” means —

(a) any person or body of persons with whom a Member entered into a contract of service or held any paid office; or

(b) any trade vocation or profession engaged in by a Member.

Parts A and B of the summary follows records interests registered by a Member, not having been a Member in the Parliament last past, who took and subscribed the oath or affirmation as a Member on 19 December 2018. Interests are shown under the following abbreviated headings:

1. Income source 2. Office held 3. Company beneficial interest 4. Party, body or association 5. Trust beneficial interest 6. Trusteeship 7. Land beneficial interest 8. Other substantial interest

In addition to the requirement for new Members to submit a primary return, section 6(4) of the Act also allows for the notification of variations to the Register to be submitted at any time. Part C of the summary therefore reports variations notified by certain Members between 24 September 2018 and 4 February 2019 pursuant to section 6(4). The date of receipt of such advice is given in each case.
