Mr. Paul Hogan:

The purpose of the draft Bill is to regulate and to provide a legislative framework for the operation of the planning system. The purpose of that planning system is to ensure there can be a steady pipeline of delivery when it comes to permissions and decision-making. There are many other mechanisms in that regard being pursued through other forums and means. The residential zoned land tax to encourage people to develop sites that are zoned and serviced is currently being rolled out. That is one of the measures. In terms of the follow-on legislation we will be bringing in, the land value sharing element and the urban development zone, UDZ, part of that will also encourage development to take place through greater State intervention.
