LANDS
— MANAGEMENT ORDERS
341. Hon NEIL THOMSON to the minister representing the
Minister for Lands:
I
refer to the much-delayed annual report of the Department of Planning, Lands
and Heritage and the Auditor General's opinion related to land
at fair value at $2.747 billion, and I quote —
� management were unable to substantiate
the existence of all administered land. This was due to inadequate controls over administered land, as some land was subject to
a Management Order and therefore should not be recognised.
Can the minister provide a list of
land included in the state's assets for which a valuation exists on
lands with a management order, identifying —
(a) the management order holder;
(b) the unique land identification
number for the lot;
(c) the valuation that has been
included; and
(d) the
approximate date, by financial year, when the valuation was included in the
state's assets?
