QuestionView source ↗

I refer to section 42 of the Land Administration Act 1977 and ask - (1) Has the minister had reason to exercise any of the provisions of this section of the act in the past 12 months in respect of land located in the metropolitan area? (2) If so, will the minister table a schedule describing the particulars of the affected land and the nature of the amendments? Hon ADELE FARINA

AnswerView source ↗

I thank the member for some notice of this question. (1)-(2) Scheduling of section 42 of the Land Administration Act 1977 is not a straightforward matter. Section 42(1) provides for the creation of A-class reserves. Section 42(3) provides for minor amendments to class A reserves, without the requirement for tabling in Parliament. Section 42(4) provides for more substantial amendments to class A reserves, which must first be tabled before both houses of Parliament. If the member will be more specific about the subsection or subsections he requires reporting on, the minister will ask for a schedule to be prepared.
