Territory plan—variation No 262

Paper and statement by minister

MR CORBELL (Molonglo—Attorney-General, Minister for Police and Emergency Services and Minister for Planning): For the information of members, I present the following paper:

Land (Planning and Environment) Act, pursuant to subsection 29 (1)—approval of variation No 262 to the territory plan—changes to A10 residential core area for Narrabundah, dated 29 November 2006, together with background papers, a copy of the summaries and reports, and a copy of any direction or report required.

I ask leave to make a statement in relation to the papers.

Leave granted.

MR CORBELL: Draft variation No 262 of the territory plan proposes to amend the boundaries of the Narrabundah A10 residential core area in accordance with the recommendations contained in the Narrabundah neighbourhood plan. The draft variation was released for public comment in July 2005 and attracted one public submission. The proposed changes to the written statement relating to supportive housing, adaptable housing and related terminology have been removed from the final version of the variation.

New provisions relating to supportive housing were included in draft variation No 263 that was released in July last year. Provisions relating to adaptable housing have been dealt with through variation No 229. Changes to terminology will be further reviewed and may be the subject of a future draft variation or modified in conjunction with the new territory plan proposed through the planning system reform process.

The Standing Committee on Planning and Environment, in its report released in October, made no recommendations in relation to the draft variation. The committee noted that the proposed territory plan variation implements the Narrabundah neighbourhood plan in relation to the adjustment of the residential core area.
