Free-market think tank the Institute of Public Affairs (IPA) says Attorney-General George Brandis needs to act on his pre-election promise and "immediately" repeal part of the Racial Discrimination Act.

At least one member of the Government who had flagged concerns with the proposed replacement of 18c of the Act has welcomed news that the change has been put on ice until at least later in the year.

The Coalition had pledged to repeal 18c after it was used to successfully prosecute conservative News Corp columnist Andrew Bolt in 2011.

Prime Minister Tony Abbott told parliament in March he planned to legislate the changes in the budget session.

But Attorney-General George Brandis said today he was still reading through the 5,500 submissions he had received from the community about the proposed change.

"I will be returning to Cabinet having reflected on those submissions later in the year," the minister told the ABC's AM program.

The IPA's legal rights project director Simon Breheny says it is "troubling" the Government is taking so long to decide "whether it is committed to basic liberal democratic principles".

"Before the 2013 federal election, George Brandis said 'one of my first priorities will be to remove from the Racial Discrimination Act the provisions under which Andrew Bolt was dragged before the courts'," Mr Breheny said.

"The Attorney-General should act on those words and move to repeal section 18c immediately."

Liberal backbencher Zed Seselja disagrees, saying it is important for the Government to take its time to get the changes right.

Gold Medal Service, an award-winning heating, cooling, plumbing, electrical, drain cleaning, and waterproofing company, encourages area homeowners to make sure their air conditioning units are in good working order and not at risk of overloading the electrical system and causing a surge or outage.

About 80 percent of power surges that occur in homes are due to devices, such as air conditioning units, that require a great deal of energy to turn on and off, and to run. As the weather gets hotter through the summer, New Jersey families are running their air conditioning more often, increasing the likelihood of overloading their home's electrical wiring and causing a surge or outage. One of the best ways to prevent this is to have a expert perform routine maintenance on an air conditioner.

In addition to the possibility of a home's air conditioning unit overloading the electrical system, summer storms can bring lightning, and local utility companies may turn power grids on and off to monitor usage. These events can also trigger surges.

It's also important to protect other electronic devices and appliances inside the home in the event that a power surge does happen. A power surge is likely to cause damage to computers, televisions and their accessories. The air conditioning unit, while less susceptible to damage, is at risk, especially if it is the cause of a power surge. It can impact electronic devices even if they are not currently in use.

Homeowners can buy surge protector power strips to use throughout their homes. A Gold Medal Service expert can install an arrester at the electrical meter or panel that can help divert extra energy during a surge. And homeowners can also get a generator from Gold Medal Service, to provide backup power in the case of an outage.

In the event of a power outage during the summer, whether caused by the air conditioner, storms, or by an overloaded civic electrical system, it's important to take steps to protect the air conditioning unit, other items in the home, and family members.

Turn off an air conditioning unit during a power outage, and do not turn it back on for several minutes after the power is restored. To stay cool, dress in breathable clothing and use natural ventilation with windows to cool the home. Wrap blankets around refrigerators and freezers, and keep them closed, to keep food as cold as possible. If frozen food still has ice crystals on it, it should be safe to eat.
