(c) The lease was granted for the following purpose:

"To use the premises for grazing stock agricultural horse riding school purposes and for a single unit private dwelling".

Consistent with the approach adopted for other rural/commercial leases, such as Fassifern Equestrian centre and the Gold Creek Homestead, the lease was issued without a withdrawal clause.

(4) The new lessees are Stephen John Dawn and Anne Veronica Dawn. The block

is used for stock grazing and agricultural purposes. A single unit private

dwelling was already on the block.

(5) Yes.

(6) I am not able to provide advice on the average term of leases granted over

Designated Land. Each case is assessed on its merits where commercial

interests are involved and leases of the order of 25 years are not unusual. For

example, the lease recently issued over the site of The Boathouse restaurant

was for 25 years.

(7) Planning intentions and restrictions for Designated Land are determined by the

National Capital Plan. The block therefore falls within the planning control of

the National Capital Planning Authority. In accordance with normal practice,

the Authoritys views on the proposed term extension were sought. A 25 year

term was supported.
