(5) The YMCA Canberra has advised Access Canberra that they are a part of a national review of their corporate structure, the outcome of which may fundamentally change the nature of their operation in Yarralumla Bay, and requested permission to continue to occupy the premises until the outcome of the review is known. In response to their request, the YMCA has been advised that they can continue operating as they have been until the outcome of their national review is completed or until 31 December 2018 whichever comes first.
(6) Access Canberra is currently working with the YMCA to ensure that they will be compliant with their lease conditions after the review is completed.
In order to work with this organisation which has a long standing relationship with the community, Access Canberra is allowing them this period of time while the national review of their organisation is undertaken. Access Canberra is committed to regularly liaising with the YMCA to ensure that they achieve full compliance as soon as is practicable. The Government will consider any other enforcement under the PDA should they not cease the use within the identified timeframe.
