Retirement Villages

The Hon. J.A. DARLEY (15:00): I seek leave to make a brief explanation before asking the Treasurer, representing the Attorney-General, a question about the implementation of the government's decision in respect of the valuation policies and charges on retirement villages.

Leave granted.

The Hon. J.A. DARLEY: In September 2020, I was advised by the Treasurer that the Valuer-General intended to undertake a consultation process with industry participants and stakeholders prior to its implementation. My question to the minister is: when is the Valuer-General planning to commence an appropriate and comprehensive consultation process with key stakeholders, bearing in mind that there is less than four months to implement the decision?

The Hon. R.I. LUCAS (Treasurer) (15:00): I am happy to refer the honourable member's question to the Attorney-General and bring back a reply.
