MR BARR (Molonglo—Minister for Education and Training, Minister for Planning, Minister for Tourism, Sport and Recreation, Minister for Industrial Relations) (10.30): I move amendment No 126 circulated in my name [see schedule 1 at page 2065].

Amendment No 126 inserts in the bill a new clause 424 (1) (e) which specifies the transitional public consultation conditions for the territory plan. This new clause strengthens the existing requirements for preparation of the initial territory plan. The clause requires the authority to publish and consult on the draft territory plan after the commencement of this clause. The minimum period for public consultation is 15 working days. This requirement is in addition to the requirements in existing clause 424 (1) of the bill, the transition and public consultation on the territory plan clause.

Amendment agreed to.

Clause 424, as amended, agreed to.

Clauses 425 to 428, by leave, taken together and agreed to.

Proposed new clauses 428A and 428B.

MR BARR (Molonglo—Minister for Education and Training, Minister for Planning, Minister for Tourism, Sport and Recreation, Minister for Industrial Relations) (10.32): I move amendment No 127 circulated in my name [see schedule 1 at page 2065].

This amendment inserts in the bill new clauses 428A and 428B to provide additional transition provisions for draft plan variations submitted to the minister under the repealed act—the Land (Planning and Environment) Act 1991—that are part complete at the time of the commencement of the Planning and Development Act. These new clauses cover additional scenarios not already addressed. Provisions such as these are intended to ensure that work done on draft variations prior to commencement is not wasted.

Proposed new clauses 428A and 428B agreed to.

Proposed new clause 428C.
