QuestionView source ↗
I refer to question without notice 1201, about Wireless Hill Reserve A28913. Noting the minister’s advice that the conditions of the transfer of title permit the excision of a portion of the reserve for purposes other than those specified, subject to the Department for Planning and Infrastructure seeking and obtaining commonwealth agreement, I ask - (1) Will the minister table a copy of the document that makes provision for this? (2) Has the department sought and/or obtained commonwealth agreement for the proposal; and, if so, will the minister table this correspondence? Hon KEN TRAVERS
AnswerView source ↗
I thank the member for some notice of this question. (1) No. Advice from the Crown Solicitor’s Office has determined that any interest created under the Transfer of Land Act does not subsist once the land has been revested and place under the provisions of the Land Administration Act 1997. Sections 42 and 43 of that Act allow the excisions to be effected. (2) Any commonwealth agreement required will be sought once both Houses of Parliament have agreed to the proposal.
