PLANNING APPROVALS

The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Leader of the Opposition) (14:43): Sir, I have a supplementary question. With respect to the residential code that the minister spoke about, we saw version No. 11 during the debate on the bill. Can the minister assure us that there have been no changes to that residential code since the legislation was passed?

The Hon. P. HOLLOWAY (Minister for Mineral Resources Development, Minister for Urban Development and Planning, Minister for Small Business) (14:44): There will be some very minor technical arrangements (and I will be happy to let the honourable member know when they come in), which have come out of discussions. They are essentially the same as the version that was produced in this parliament. As I said, any amendments are technical, based on the advice that we have received. However, it certainly does not change the principle.
