Compulsory Land Acquisition

In reply to the Hon. C. BONAROS (13 May 2020).

The Hon. R.I. LUCAS (Treasurer): The Attorney-General has provided the following advice:

1. The act has not yet been proclaimed, as the necessary regulations are currently being developed. We are working towards commencement as soon as possible.

2. Yes, it is the intention that when the act commences, all provisions will commence together.

The Minister for Transport, Infrastructure and Local Government has provided the following advice:

3. With respect to the Portrush Road and Magill Road intersection, the land acquisition for this project has already commenced and the project is well advanced and therefore the amendments are unlikely to impact those acquisitions.
