Reports and Statement

MRS GRASSBY: Madam Speaker, I present reports Nos 8 and 9 of 1994 of the Standing Committee on Scrutiny of Bills and Subordinate Legislation. I ask for leave to make a brief statement on the reports.

Report No. 9 of 1994 contains the committee's comments on one Bill and 11 pieces of subordinate legislation. I commend the reports to the Assembly.

PLANNING, DEVELOPMENT AND INFRASTRUCTURE -

STANDING COMMITTEE

Report on Draft Variation to the Territory Plan - Kambah

MR BERRY (3.42): I present report No. 29 of the Standing Committee on Planning, Development and Infrastructure on the draft variation to the Territory Plan for Kambah, sections 274, 275 and 277, part, together with a copy of the relevant extracts of the minutes of proceedings. This report was provided to the Speaker for circulation on Friday, 10 June 1994, pursuant to the resolution of appointment. I move:

That the report be noted.

The report deals with a draft variation for an area of Kambah alongside Drakeford Drive. This area is shown as Commercial E in the site-specific policy contained in the Territory Plan. The variation would enable the whole of this Drakeford Drive corridor site to include warehouse store as a permissible land use. This will allow a small extension of the U-Stow-It block onto adjacent land which currently forms part of a road reserve. The draft variation is minor and seeks to redress a Planning Authority oversight when the Territory Plan was prepared. The committee unanimously agreed that the draft variation should proceed.

Before I close I should point out that the report contains a minor error in regard to the date. Paragraph 2 of the report says that the Minister referred the draft variation to the committee on 17 June 1994. Members will note that the report is dated 10 June 1994. Even by the standards of the PDI Committee, that sort of fast turnover would be a bit quick. The correct date of the Minister's referral of the draft variation is 7 June, not 17 June. With that minor correction, I commend the report to members.

Question resolved in the affirmative.
