These are two very simple amendments to the Territory Plan, accepted unanimously by the PDI Committee. The first is a change to the land currently occupied by the Burns Club in Kambah. The variation will require substantial spillway works to be carried out by the club to allow the rearrangement of the amenity of the blocks I have outlined. Basically, what it will mean is that the cost will be met out of the cost of the additional land that will be provided to the Burns Club. I again congratulate my fellow committee members for the expeditious way in which they conducted the inquiry into this variation. I also wish to place on record our appreciation to the executive and managing director of the Burns Club, who appeared before the committee.

The second proposal is to provide for - I will use the generic term, if I may - a strata title arrangement in relation to the purpose clause for the Barton Cafe, that well-known Canberra institution which has provided succour to a whole range of people. That does not mean that Mr De Domenico has been provided on the site, although that could be one interpretation. It has been deemed appropriate that the purpose clause for this site be varied to allow for a particular title to be given to the Barton Cafe, with a purpose clause reflecting the nature of the business undertaking on that site. I commend the report to the Assembly.

Question resolved in the affirmative.
