(1) No Agreements have been amended to provide additional rating opportunities for local government. The Government is awaiting the outcome of the Study into the effects of State Agreement rating clauses on local government revenue. Two State Agreements have been brought to Parliament since the last election: · Rail and Port (The Pilbara Infrastructure Pty Ltd) Agreement; and · Iron Ore (FMG Chichester Pty Ltd) Agreement. Neither Agreement contains a rating limitation clause. (2) See (1).
