How hard is it to Google?

In an offline article, today’s SST states that some wording in a Bill before Parliament is 30 years old.  Had the author bothered to check his facts he’d know the wording in question is only four years old, this information is easily found on the legislation online site.   It appears he just accepted what he read in a submission on the Bill without verifying its accuracy.

While the points made on the wording are useful for the public debate that’s little excuse for not checking what presented as the story’s main point.
