Legislative Assembly for the ACT: 2000 Week 5 Hansard (9 May) . . Page.. 1314 ..
MR HIRD (4.37): Mr Speaker, I present Report No 47 of the Standing Committee on Planning and Urban Services entitled Draft Variation to the Territory Plan No 145- Heritage Places Register, together with a copy of the extracts of the minutes of proceedings. This report was provided to you, sir, for circulation on Thursday, 4 May 2000, pursuant to the resolution of appointment. I move:
That the report be noted.
Mr Speaker, I wish to speak briefly to this report. Report No 47 of the Standing Committee on Planning and Urban Services sets out the committee's recommendation, which is unanimous, for the addition of several places to the Heritage Places Register. We make one change to the draft variation, which is that the word "maintenance" be included in the conservation policy for St John the Baptist Church, Reid. This will bring the conservation policy into line with that for the two other churches in the variation and hence ensure consistency. With that minor change, we are happy to see the draft variation proceed. We thank the minister and his staff. I also thank my colleagues. I recommend that the house agree to the motion.
Question resolved in the affirmative.
MR HIRD (4.38): Mr Speaker, I present Report No 48 of the Standing Committee on Planning and Urban Services entitled Draft Plans of Management for Urban Parks and Sportsgrounds in Inner Canberra and in Tuggeranong, together with a copy of the extracts of the minutes of proceedings. This report was provided to the Speaker for circulation on Thursday, 4 May 2000, pursuant to the resolution of appointment. I move:
That the report be noted.
Mr Speaker, the 48th report by my Planning and Urban Services Committee deals with the draft plans of management for urban parks and sportsgrounds in inner Canberra and in Tuggeranong. There is only one matter to bring to the attention of members of the house, and that is that the committee's examination of the draft management plans led it to query the status of City Hill. Following our queries, government officials decided to upgrade the historic status of City Hill from low to high. We are happy with these changes and hence recommend that the draft management plan be endorsed. I commend the report to the house.
Debate (on motion by Mr Quinlan ) adjourned.
