PLANNING ADMINISTRATION - END OF TRANSITION PERIOD
Ministerial Statement

MR KAINE (Chief Minister), by leave: I would like to inform members of significant changes to the administration of planning in the ACT which will become operative from tomorrow. Members will be aware that on 11 December last year the Legislative Assembly passed the Interim Planning Bill 1990. The main function of this Bill was to establish an ACT Planning Authority and to give to that authority the duty of preparing and releasing the draft Territory Plan. As was explained at that time, the provisions of the legislation were to commence on the day specified as the end of the transition period established under the Australian Capital Territory (Planning and Land Management) Act 1988.

This transition period was a period during which particular planning procedures would apply in the ACT. It was defined as the period between the repeal of the NCDC Act and the day on which the Governor-General, by proclamation, indicates that he is satisfied that there is in place a National Capital Plan which sufficiently covers the Territory.
