Explanatory Memorandum
(Circulated by authority of the Minister for Justice and Customs, Senator the Honourable Chris Ellison)Schedule 7 - Pardons, quashed convictions and spent convictions
Crimes Act 1914
This Item repeals paragraph (e) of the definition of law enforcement agency in section 85ZL (which currently refers to the National Exchange of Police Information) and replaces it with a reference to the CrimTrac Agency. This proposed amendment is consequential on assumption by the CrimTrac Agency of the responsibilities formally carried out by the National Exchange of Police Information.
