Legislative Assembly for the ACT: 1999 Week 1 Hansard (8 December) . . Page.. 3970 ..
MR CORBELL (continuing):
People should be allowed to appeal against that because they may take a different view. If it is affecting someone's personal amenity, if it is affecting the amenity of a neighbourhood, of a street or of a suburb, then it is appropriate to allow a third party appeal.
Mr Speaker, the Labor Party will be supporting Ms Tucker's amendment in relation to a third party appeal for these areas because it is workable and it provides a right that is currently denied to residents to have a say on what sort of suburb they live in into the future. I challenge any member in this place to deny residents in those suburbs that right. They live in them, they enjoy their amenity, and they want to see the amenity improved and enhanced, not degraded.
Debate (on motion by Mr Wood ) adjourned.
