Motion for Disallowance

MR LAMONT (11.46): I move the notice that has been presented to the Clerk this day, as follows:

That the approved Variation No. 5 to the Territory Plan for Watson, sections 61 to 64, 72, 74, 76, 79, 80 and 83 (North Watson), be disallowed.

Mr Moore: Madam Speaker, I would like, first of all, to raise a point of order. I believe that, under standing orders, this motion is not valid because it does not appear on the notice paper. I would ask you to rule on that.

MADAM SPEAKER: I think you are incorrect on that, but I will check with the Clerk to keep you happy, Mr Moore. Mr Moore, we are both right. Because we have suspended standing orders it is in order. Please continue, if you wish to speak to the motion.

Mr Moore: I think Ms Szuty is going to speak.

MS SZUTY (11.48): I said in my speech on Tuesday of last week, I believe, on the Planning, Development and Infrastructure Committee's report on North Watson, that, of all the draft variations which the Planning Committee has considered over the last several months, the proposed draft variation for North Watson has given me the most anxiety and consternation. It still does. For that reason I will be supporting Mr Lamont's disallowance motion with regard to the proposed North Watson development.
