State Planning System

1407 The Hon. A. PICCOLO (Light) (24 September 2019). Can you guarantee that sufficient staff will be employed in the department to support the transition to, and the operation of, the state's full-functioning new planning system from 1 July next year?

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

The government is committed to delivering the new planning system from 1 July next year. The Department of Planning, Transport and Infrastructure is preparing a target state operating model that will help to define the organisational structure, resourcing and skill sets required to operate the new system and support this commitment. The transition to the state operating model will take time to embed following the full launch of the e-planning system from July 2020 onwards.
