Debated in Parliament on 26 May 2020.
Mr Speaker, on behalf of the Minister for Transport, I beg to move, "That the Bill be now read a Second time."
The Active Mobility (Amendment No. 2) Bill 2020 amends the Active Mobility Act to shorten the forfeiture process for seized devices which LTA has assessed to be dangerous and to expand the public path network to include certain open spaces so that our public path network can accommodate the largest range of users and active mobility devices can be used safely in accordance with our regulations.
This Bill, as with the previous Bill on our Order Paper, the Small Motorised Vehicles (Safety) Bill, supports our vision of active mobility as a safe and sustainable mode of transport for Singaporeans. In the debate, we have just had on the Small Motorised Vehicles Bill, I have already explained the amendments proposed in both Bills. Members have already raised their questions and expressed their views on both Bills during the earlier debate, although they are still welcome to do so now if there are any additional questions or views. Mr Speaker, I beg to move.
Question put, and agreed to.
Bill accordingly read a Second time and committed to a Committee of the whole House.
The House immediately resolved itself into a Committee on the Bill. – [Dr Lam Pin Min].
Bill considered in Committee; reported without amendment; read a Third time and passed.
