TOURISM — SHORT-TERM RENTAL ACCOMMODATION
229. Hon NEIL THOMSON to the Leader of the House
representing the Minister for Planning:
I
refer to the current review into planning for tourism, including short-stay
accommodation by the Western Australian Planning Commission, and note
that the draft position statement was released in December 2021 and submissions
are now closed.
(1) When does the state expect to
release the final position paper by the WAPC?
(2) Does the
minister have a view about whether the reforms can be delivered through
planning policies, or will there be a requirement to amend legislation or
regulations?
(3) What is the overall timetable
for the delivery of the reforms?
