requires relevant standing committees which consider statutory appointments to report on a six-monthly basis and present a schedule listing appointments considered during the applicable period.

The schedule is required to include the statutory appointments considered and, for each appointment, the date the request from the responsible minister for consultation was received and the date the committee’s response was provided. In this period the committee has advised ministers it had no comment to make on the appointments proposed.

For the applicable reporting period—1 January 2014 to 30 June 2014—the committee considered a total of 19 appointments or reappointments to six statutory agencies.

I table a schedule of appointments for the period 1 January 2014 to 30 June 2014 as considered by the education, training and youth affairs committee for the Eighth Assembly in accordance with continuing resolution 5A. I present the following paper:

Education, Training and Youth Affairs—Standing Committee—Schedule of Statutory Appointments—8th Assembly—Period 1 January to 30 June 2014.

The committee notes that it had no specific comment to make on any proposed appointments during this period, and notes all correspondence and associated material provided to the committee complied with the terms of the continuing resolution in providing full details relevant to proposed appointments, including appropriate CV, remuneration, details of legislative requirement and term of appointment.

It is pleasing that there has been an improvement in this regard. Whilst the committee may have had to remind people from time to time that we need a little bit more information, it was always provided and it was always there for the consideration of the committee. I thank everyone who has assisted in this process, particularly the committee office and my secretary.

Planning, Environment and Territory and Municipal Services—Standing Committee

Statement by chair

MS BERRY (Ginninderra): Pursuant to standing order 246A I wish to make a statement on behalf of the Standing Committee on Planning, Environment and Territory and Municipal Services relating to an inquiry that the committee has commenced.

On 20 August 2014 the Minister for Planning referred the draft plan of management for the Albert Hall to the Standing Committee on Planning, Environment and Territory and Municipal Services for its consideration. The committee was also given a summary of the public consultation that was undertaken in 2012.

The Planning and Development Act 2007 requires all public land to have a plan of management which details how land management objectives prescribed in the act are to be met.
