Legislative Assembly for the ACT: 1996 Week 12 Hansard (21 November) . . Page.. 3935 ..

MR MOORE (continuing):

question our own views. That applies to me, to the Greens, to Mr Kaine and to Ms McRae. On many occasions before, Mr Speaker, when we sat back and looked at the issues and the evidence that was presented to us, we modified our views. Mr Speaker, I hope I have the support of the Assembly on this particular proposal.

MS TUCKER (10.55): Mr Speaker, I move the following amendment:

Omit all words after "That", substitute the following:

"(1) the Assembly calls on the Government to:

(a) withdraw the Strategic Development Options for Ainslie and O'Connor plan prepared by ACT Housing and the Planning and Land Management Group;

(b) direct ACT Housing and the Planning and Land Management Group to implement the consultation process over the planning of Ainslie determined by the meeting of residents held at Corroboree Park Hall on 17 November 1996;

(c) place a moratorium on further sales of dwellings owned by ACT Housing in Ainslie until this plan is finalised;

(d) ensure that the proportion of ACT Housing tenants living in Ainslie is at least preserved in any redevelopment plans; and

(e) ensure that no current ACT Housing tenant is in any way forced to relocate because of this plan;

(2) the Standing Committee on Planning and Environment monitor the consultation process regarding the planning of Ainslie and report by 30 June 1997, taking particular regard of:

(a) the appropriateness of the proposed development for the area;

(b) the concerns of residents of the affected suburbs; and

(c) the adequacy of the consultation process;
