Community groups or organisations would still be subject to any general tests of frivolous or vexatious litigation. They will need to demonstrate how the decision relates to a matter included in the objects of the group or organisation. As with other appellants, such groups or organisations would not gain standing where it could be demonstrated that the purpose of their appeal was to gain or maintain commercial competitive advantage. For these reasons, the government will not be supporting Mr Seselja’s amendment.
Amendment negatived.
Clause 411 agreed to.
Clauses 412 to 414, by leave, taken together and agreed to.
Proposed new clause 414A.
MR BARR (Molonglo—Minister for Education and Training, Minister for Planning, Minister for Tourism, Sport and Recreation, Minister for Industrial Relations) (10.24): I move amendment No 120 circulated in my name, which inserts a new clause 414A [see schedule 1 at page 2065].
This amendment inserts a new general transitional provision, clause 414A, in the bill. The provision requires any outdated reference to the repealed Land (Planning and Environment) Act 1991, regulations made under the repealed act and things done under the repealed act to be read as references to the corresponding matters in the new Planning and Development Act 2006, assuming that there is a corresponding matter.
Proposed new clause 414A agreed to.
Clauses 415 and 416, by leave, taken together and agreed to.
Clause 417.
MR BARR (Molonglo—Minister for Education and Training, Minister for Planning, Minister for Tourism, Sport and Recreation, Minister for Industrial Relations) (10.25): I seek leave to move amendments Nos 121 and 122 circulated in my name together.
Leave granted.
MR BARR: I move amendments Nos 121 and 122 circulated in my name [see schedule 1 at page 2065].
Amendment No 121 is a companion amendment to amendment No 77. It substitutes a new clause 417 (2) (c) in the bill, which provides that a regulation may make provision for the keeping of a list of consultants. The intention is for the regulation to include criteria that consultants must satisfy to be included in the list of consultants to be kept by the authority.
