Planning and Design Code

1403 The Hon. A. PICCOLO (Light) (24 September 2019). Can you guarantee that under the transition to the planning and design code, minimum allotment sizes in the country living zones around Stirling, Crafers and Aldgate, will not fall below the current minimum of 2000 square metres?

The Hon. S.K. KNOLL (Schubert—Minister for Transport, Infrastructure and Local Government, Minister for Planning): I have been advised the following—

The draft code proposes a deemed-to-satisfy minimum allotment size of 2000 square metres for detached dwellings in the rural living areas of Stirling and Crafers. As addressed previously, the legislation does not enable me, and nor is it appropriate for me to pre-empt the outcomes of the consultation process and the advice of the State Planning Commission.
