MINISTER FOR THE ENVIRONMENT, LAND AND PLANNING

LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY QUESTION

QUESTION NO 1378

Territory Plan - Establishment Cost

Mr Cornwell - asked the Minister for the Environment, Land and Planning -

What was the cost of establishing the Territory Plan.

Mr Wood - the answer to the Members question is as follows:

It is not possible to provide a precise figure as not all the costs of preparing and introducing the Territory Plan can be positively identified. Preparation of the Territory Plan involved to some extent most of the staff of the ACT Planning Authority, other staff of the Department of the Environment, Land and Planning and officers of most other ACT Government Service agencies. All of these costs were not separately identified and were spread over a number of years. It would require considerable research to extract the information and it would not be possible to guarantee the accuracy of any figure derived as a result of such research.

Direct costs which can be identified or be reasonably estimated and covering expenditures such as printing and publishing the draft and final Plans, the engagement of consultants to assist in the preparation of the Plan and to undertake seminars and workshops during the consultation period amounted to some $205,000.
