(9) The overall Festival stall plan is decided by a cross-government Festival working group based on competition with existing shop owners, weather, surface dryness and drainage, spatial constraints, security and public safety, consumer behaviour and existing infrastructure and stall holder requests and preferences.

To ensure a balanced distribution, the following issues are considered:

• rotating community stalls each year to make sure all communities get an equal opportunity;

• the number of liquor stalls in each area;

• equal distribution of similar products across the footprint;

• groups of temporary structures in which LP gas is used;

• charcoal BBQ operators;

• security and access requirements by ACT Ambulance, ACT Police and Embassies;

• van sites; and

• the location of showcases.
