I refer to the Metropolitan Redevelopment Authority’s (MRA) planned redevelopment of the Bayswater Town Centre, and I ask: (a) what is the purpose of the MRA undertaking this redevelopment instead of the City of Bayswater, considering the City of Bayswater already submitted a development plan for the town centre in May 2018; (b) which authority initiated the transfer of responsibility for the redevelopment of the town centre to the MRA; (c) was a consultation process undertaken by the Minister’s Office, the Department, and/or the MRA prior to this decision: (i) if yes to (c): (A) who was consulted; and (B) will the Minister please table minutes and record of attendance; and (ii) in particular, were any meetings held with developers or community groups: (A) if yes to (c)(ii), will the Minister please table the minutes and record of attendance; (d) how did the MRA manage any conflicts between between their activities and any staff or consultants involved in the process that may own properties in or near the affected area?
