QuestionView source ↗
In relation to the Barnett Government’s failure to establish an Electronic Land Development Program (ELDP), I ask:
(a) is the Minister aware that when a new redevelopment proposal is lodged with the Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC), it has to be tracked manually for its four-year journey to finalisation;
(b) is the Minister aware of how many other States still operate manually;
(c) what is the costing of introducing an ELDP into the WAPC; and
(d) will the Minister guarantee that funding for an ELDP will be included in the 2011–2012 budget; and
(i)
if not, why not?

(a) Subdivision applications are tracked in the electronic Statutory Support System from the time of initial lodgement to the issue of the Deposited Plan allowing Landgate to create the title. Recent improvements to the Statutory Support System include:
· integration of an electronic document repository into the Statutory Support System, with the aim of obviating the need for paper based storage of relevant documentation;
· full automation of deposited plan approvals processing, from the electronic receipt of documentation from land development applicants through to the electronic distribution of the subsequent determinations to all stakeholders (including applicants, referral authorities and Landgate); and
· future inclusion of Structure Plans, which will allow additional tracking of future lots prior to the lodgement of their relevant subdivision to ensure the State has accurate figures of lots that are in the lot supply pipeline.
The development of systems allowing for these automations were designed to be generic to enable electronic rather than paper based processing from other land development determination processes.
These systems will include an audit system allowing departmental staff to track the progress of an application at each stage of the process.
(b) No States have a fully electronic system for both Statutory and Strategic applications and plans.
(c) The total cost of introducing an ELDP is estimated to be in excess of $20m (including GST). The actual cost would depend on negotiations with the suppliers and successful tenderers.
(d) No.
(i) The 2011-12 Budget is yet to be released.
