QuestionView source ↗
I refer to the ‘Putting the Public First’ Economic Audit Committee report of October 2009, and in particular to recommendation 25 which was, -
‘In addition to its policy (land-use planning) and regulatory (development approval) functions, the Government’s role in land development be driven by the following principles -
(a) it should be limited to circumstances of demonstrable market failure through market testing that proves that the private sector cannot deliver at an appropriate price;
(b) in addressing market failure, contestability should be pursued, along with transparency of resourcing by Government; and
(c) where appropriate, Government should maximise the benefit from the development and disposal of surplus public land assets’,
and I ask -
(1) Has the following milestone, policies relating to contestability in the release of vacant Crown land and the planning and development of major urban renewal projects to be developed and take effect (June 2010), contained in recommendation 25 been achieved?
(2) If the above milestone contained in recommendation 25 has not been achieved, why not?
