The Minister for Local Government and Regional Development has provided a very detailed answer. I seek leave to have the answer incorporated into Hansard . Leave granted. The following material was incorporated - I thank the Hon. Member for some notice of this question. The responses to these questions are based on information provided by the Shire of Yilgarn and the Department of Land Information. 1. What was the total amount payable by the tenement holder for these tenements for the 2005-2006 financial year? On the 9th August 2005, Council levied rates totalling $22,612.40 against the properties in question, with a 5% discount offered for payment in full by the 13th September 2005. Individually, these properties are as follows: Assessment Tenement Current Arrears Payment Balance A#26000 G77/00109 $295.00 $159.20 $439.45 $14.75 A#26001 G77/00110 $295.00 $159.20 $439.45 $14.75 A#26002 M77/01065 $5,026.50 $2,633.70 $7,408.88 $251.32 A#26003 M77/01066 $5,236.00 $2,743.50 $7,717.70 $261.80 A#26004 M77/01067 $5,173.18 $2,710.58 $7,624.95 $258.65 A#26005 M77/01068 $1,874.40 $982.10 $2,762.78 $93.72 A#26006 M77/01080 $4,712.40 $2,469.10 $6,945.88 $235.62 $33,339.09 $1,130.61 The combined balance to date is $1,350.13 due to penalty interest of 11%pa, calculated daily, accruing against the accounts. 2. What was the applicable rate in the dollar in respect of these tenements and were the tenements valued on an individual basis and if so what date was a physical inspection carried out by the valuer on each of the tenements? Council adopted an Unimproved Value Differential rate of 8.0 cents in the Dollar for UV Mining Properties, with a minimum payment of $295 per Assessment. Information relating to physical inspections is not available to the Department therefore it is unable to offer comment. The second half of Question 2 was answered by the Valuer General, Department of Land Information: Mining leases and general purpose leases issued under the Mining Act 1978 are subject to individual unimproved valuation based on a statutory formula, being five times the rent or fee payable for the lease. This is detailed within S.4 of the Valuation of Land Act 1978 . Inspections for valuation on this basis are not necessary. 3. Can the Minister advise the specific work or services provided by the Shire of Yilgarn for these tenements for the 2004-05 financial year and the proposed work or services to be provided for the 2005-06 financial year? Council expended $16,919.37 during the 2004/2005 financial year, carrying out Maintenance Works on the Marvel Loch-Forrestania Road. Furthermore, Council has already expended $15,201.45 during 2005/2006, with a further two-thirds of the year remaining. Additionally, Montague Resources Australia Pty Limited, in line with any other ratepayer, is entitled to make use of the many facilities Council owns and operates throughout the Shire of Yilgarn, including but not limited to, the Southern Cross Swimming Pool, Six Community Halls throughout the Shire, Library and Telecentre in Southern Cross, Recreation Facilities located throughout the Shire, Public Parks in Southern Cross, etc. 4. Did the tenement holder write to the Shire of Yilgarn on the 14th and 19th of October 2005 seeking a response to various issues and, if so, when did the Shire respond? Council received facsimiles from Mr Williams on the 14th and 19th October 2005. After the first correspondence of the 14th October 2005 was received, Council’s Rates Officer, attempted to make contact with Mr Williams the same day, and did not receive a response.

A formal reply to Mr Williams’ second facsimile is in the process of being prepared, and has unfortunately been extended due to other commitments by members of Council’s Executive Management Team.
The Minister for Local Government and Regional Development has provided a very detailed answer. I seek leave to have the answer incorporated into Hansard . Leave granted. The following material was incorporated - I thank the Hon. Member for some notice of this question. The responses to these questions are based on information provided by the Shire of Yilgarn and the Department of Land Information. 1. What was the total amount payable by the tenement holder for these tenements for the 2005-2006 financial year? On the 9th August 2005, Council levied rates totalling $22,612.40 against the properties in question, with a 5% discount offered for payment in full by the 13th September 2005. Individually, these properties are as follows: Assessment Tenement Current Arrears Payment Balance A#26000 G77/00109 $295.00 $159.20 $439.45 $14.75 A#26001 G77/00110 $295.00 $159.20 $439.45 $14.75 A#26002 M77/01065 $5,026.50 $2,633.70 $7,408.88 $251.32 A#26003 M77/01066 $5,236.00 $2,743.50 $7,717.70 $261.80 A#26004 M77/01067 $5,173.18 $2,710.58 $7,624.95 $258.65 A#26005 M77/01068 $1,874.40 $982.10 $2,762.78 $93.72 A#26006 M77/01080 $4,712.40 $2,469.10 $6,945.88 $235.62 $33,339.09 $1,130.61 The combined balance to date is $1,350.13 due to penalty interest of 11%pa, calculated daily, accruing against the accounts. 2. What was the applicable rate in the dollar in respect of these tenements and were the tenements valued on an individual basis and if so what date was a physical inspection carried out by the valuer on each of the tenements? Council adopted an Unimproved Value Differential rate of 8.0 cents in the Dollar for UV Mining Properties, with a minimum payment of $295 per Assessment. Information relating to physical inspections is not available to the Department therefore it is unable to offer comment. The second half of Question 2 was answered by the Valuer General, Department of Land Information: Mining leases and general purpose leases issued under the Mining Act 1978 are subject to individual unimproved valuation based on a statutory formula, being five times the rent or fee payable for the lease. This is detailed within S.4 of the Valuation of Land Act 1978 . Inspections for valuation on this basis are not necessary. 3. Can the Minister advise the specific work or services provided by the Shire of Yilgarn for these tenements for the 2004-05 financial year and the proposed work or services to be provided for the 2005-06 financial year? Council expended $16,919.37 during the 2004/2005 financial year, carrying out Maintenance Works on the Marvel Loch-Forrestania Road. Furthermore, Council has already expended $15,201.45 during 2005/2006, with a further two-thirds of the year remaining. Additionally, Montague Resources Australia Pty Limited, in line with any other ratepayer, is entitled to make use of the many facilities Council owns and operates throughout the Shire of Yilgarn, including but not limited to, the Southern Cross Swimming Pool, Six Community Halls throughout the Shire, Library and Telecentre in Southern Cross, Recreation Facilities located throughout the Shire, Public Parks in Southern Cross, etc. 4. Did the tenement holder write to the Shire of Yilgarn on the 14th and 19th of October 2005 seeking a response to various issues and, if so, when did the Shire respond? Council received facsimiles from Mr Williams on the 14th and 19th October 2005. After the first correspondence of the 14th October 2005 was received, Council’s Rates Officer, attempted to make contact with Mr Williams the same day, and did not receive a response.

What was the total amount payable by the tenement holder for these tenements for the 2005-2006 financial year? On the 9th August 2005, Council levied rates totalling $22,612.40 against the properties in question, with a 5% discount offered for payment in full by the 13th September 2005. Individually, these properties are as follows: Assessment Tenement Current Arrears Payment Balance A#26000 G77/00109 $295.00 $159.20 $439.45 $14.75 A#26001 G77/00110 $295.00 $159.20 $439.45 $14.75 A#26002 M77/01065 $5,026.50 $2,633.70 $7,408.88 $251.32 A#26003 M77/01066 $5,236.00 $2,743.50 $7,717.70 $261.80 A#26004 M77/01067 $5,173.18 $2,710.58 $7,624.95 $258.65 A#26005 M77/01068 $1,874.40 $982.10 $2,762.78 $93.72 A#26006 M77/01080 $4,712.40 $2,469.10 $6,945.88 $235.62 $33,339.09 $1,130.61 The combined balance to date is $1,350.13 due to penalty interest of 11%pa, calculated daily, accruing against the accounts. 2. What was the applicable rate in the dollar in respect of these tenements and were the tenements valued on an individual basis and if so what date was a physical inspection carried out by the valuer on each of the tenements? Council adopted an Unimproved Value Differential rate of 8.0 cents in the Dollar for UV Mining Properties, with a minimum payment of $295 per Assessment. Information relating to physical inspections is not available to the Department therefore it is unable to offer comment. The second half of Question 2 was answered by the Valuer General, Department of Land Information: Mining leases and general purpose leases issued under the Mining Act 1978 are subject to individual unimproved valuation based on a statutory formula, being five times the rent or fee payable for the lease. This is detailed within S.4 of the Valuation of Land Act 1978 . Inspections for valuation on this basis are not necessary. 3. Can the Minister advise the specific work or services provided by the Shire of Yilgarn for these tenements for the 2004-05 financial year and the proposed work or services to be provided for the 2005-06 financial year? Council expended $16,919.37 during the 2004/2005 financial year, carrying out Maintenance Works on the Marvel Loch-Forrestania Road. Furthermore, Council has already expended $15,201.45 during 2005/2006, with a further two-thirds of the year remaining. Additionally, Montague Resources Australia Pty Limited, in line with any other ratepayer, is entitled to make use of the many facilities Council owns and operates throughout the Shire of Yilgarn, including but not limited to, the Southern Cross Swimming Pool, Six Community Halls throughout the Shire, Library and Telecentre in Southern Cross, Recreation Facilities located throughout the Shire, Public Parks in Southern Cross, etc. 4. Did the tenement holder write to the Shire of Yilgarn on the 14th and 19th of October 2005 seeking a response to various issues and, if so, when did the Shire respond? Council received facsimiles from Mr Williams on the 14th and 19th October 2005. After the first correspondence of the 14th October 2005 was received, Council’s Rates Officer, attempted to make contact with Mr Williams the same day, and did not receive a response.

Can the Minister advise the specific work or services provided by the Shire of Yilgarn for these tenements for the 2004-05 financial year and the proposed work or services to be provided for the 2005-06 financial year? Council expended $16,919.37 during the 2004/2005 financial year, carrying out Maintenance Works on the Marvel Loch-Forrestania Road. Furthermore, Council has already expended $15,201.45 during 2005/2006, with a further two-thirds of the year remaining. Additionally, Montague Resources Australia Pty Limited, in line with any other ratepayer, is entitled to make use of the many facilities Council owns and operates throughout the Shire of Yilgarn, including but not limited to, the Southern Cross Swimming Pool, Six Community Halls throughout the Shire, Library and Telecentre in Southern Cross, Recreation Facilities located throughout the Shire, Public Parks in Southern Cross, etc. 4. Did the tenement holder write to the Shire of Yilgarn on the 14th and 19th of October 2005 seeking a response to various issues and, if so, when did the Shire respond? Council received facsimiles from Mr Williams on the 14th and 19th October 2005. After the first correspondence of the 14th October 2005 was received, Council’s Rates Officer, attempted to make contact with Mr Williams the same day, and did not receive a response. Contact was again attempted twice on Monday 17th October 2005 via telephone, again without response. On Tuesday 18th October 2005, Council’s Rates Officer, spoke to Mr Williams in relation to his first facsimile. A formal reply to Mr Williams’ second facsimile is in the process of being prepared, and has unfortunately been extended due to other commitments by members of Council’s Executive Management Team.
I thank the Hon. Member for some notice of this question. The responses to these questions are based on information provided by the Shire of Yilgarn and the Department of Land Information. 1. What was the total amount payable by the tenement holder for these tenements for the 2005-2006 financial year? On the 9th August 2005, Council levied rates totalling $22,612.40 against the properties in question, with a 5% discount offered for payment in full by the 13th September 2005. Individually, these properties are as follows: Assessment Tenement Current Arrears Payment Balance A#26000 G77/00109 $295.00 $159.20 $439.45 $14.75 A#26001 G77/00110 $295.00 $159.20 $439.45 $14.75 A#26002 M77/01065 $5,026.50 $2,633.70 $7,408.88 $251.32 A#26003 M77/01066 $5,236.00 $2,743.50 $7,717.70 $261.80 A#26004 M77/01067 $5,173.18 $2,710.58 $7,624.95 $258.65 A#26005 M77/01068 $1,874.40 $982.10 $2,762.78 $93.72 A#26006 M77/01080 $4,712.40 $2,469.10 $6,945.88 $235.62 $33,339.09 $1,130.61 The combined balance to date is $1,350.13 due to penalty interest of 11%pa, calculated daily, accruing against the accounts. 2. What was the applicable rate in the dollar in respect of these tenements and were the tenements valued on an individual basis and if so what date was a physical inspection carried out by the valuer on each of the tenements? Council adopted an Unimproved Value Differential rate of 8.0 cents in the Dollar for UV Mining Properties, with a minimum payment of $295 per Assessment. Information relating to physical inspections is not available to the Department therefore it is unable to offer comment.
