Land sales information is being gathered by the Department of Regional Development and Lands, however this requires intensive analysis of various databases and will take some time to collate. I will table this information when it is received.

(b) The total value of all 801 lots sold was $157.8 million (GST exclusive). There are too many to list individually.
