MR MOORE - Asked the Treasurer upon notice on 22 February 1994:

(1) Are the Royal Canberra Golf Club (Block 2, Section 119 and Block 1, Section 121, Division, Yarralumla) and the Federal Golf Club (Block 1, Section 56, Division, Red Hill) private golf clubs that do not allow access to non-members.

(2) Do the Royal Canberra Golf Club and the Federal Golf Club pay general rates and land tax; if not, on what ground would they be exempt.

MS FOLLETT - The answer to the Member's question is as follows:

,(1) I am advised that both Royal Canberra and Federal Golf Clubs allow members of the public access to their courses as green fee players when the courses are not fully occupied by Club activities.

In the case of Royal Canberra such access is restricted to players who are members of another club affiliated with the Australian Golf Union.

(2) Both these golf clubs pay general rates and land tax in the normal manner.
