I refer to previous comments in relation to use as development. This takes away some of the notes which would be superfluous if use as development were totally taken out of the bill.

Amendment No 6 negatived.

Amendment No 62 agreed to.

Clause 179, as amended, agreed to.

Clause 180.

MR BARR (Molonglo—Minister for Education and Training, Minister for Planning, Minister for Tourism, Sport and Recreation, Minister for Industrial Relations) (8.23): I seek leave to move amendments Nos 63 and 64 circulated in my name together.

Leave granted.

MR BARR: I move amendments Nos 63 and 64 circulated in my name together [see schedule 1 at page 2065].

Amendment No 63 substitutes clause 180 (2) (vi) of the bill to clarify that a development approval does not end simply because the relevant lease is surrendered as an intermediate step in the process of implementing the relevant lease variation or renewal.

Amendment No 64 is a companion amendment to amendment No 62, which I moved earlier. It inserts a new note in clause 180 (2) of the bill and clarifies that the development approval does not end when the building work is completed within the required statutory period. Development approvals, as I say, are to the last indefinitely.

MR SESELJA (Molonglo) (8.24): I move amendment No 7 on the blue sheet, which amends Mr Barr’s amendment No 64 [see schedule 3 at page 2102].

This is a very similar amendment to amendment No 6 on the blue sheet, which relates to the proposed new notes and is in relation to use as development.

Amendment No 7 negatived.

Amendments Nos 63 and 64 agreed to.

Clause 180, as amended, agreed to.

Clause 181.

MR SESELJA (Molonglo) (8.25): I oppose this clause [see schedule 2 at page 2099]. It is unnecessary. Once more it relates to use as development. It is therefore superfluous. That is why we are opposing it.
