WATER RESOURCES AMENDMENT REGULATION 2006 (NO 1) (NO 46 OF 2006)

THE LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY FOR THE

AUSTRALIAN CAPITAL TERRITORY


Water Resources Amendment Regulation 2006 (No 1)

SUBORDINATE LAW NO SL2006 – 46

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

Circulated with the authority of
Mr John Hargreaves MLA
Minister for Territory and
Municipal Services

Overview

The purpose of the Regulation is to correct an error in Water Resources Regulation 2006. The intention of the regulation was to allow a number of important public infrastructure projects, for example the development of Harrison and Forde, Stromlo Forest Park and also the Arboretum and Kingston Foreshores Eco-pond, to be exempt from the moratorium.

The wording of the Regulation inadvertently excluded two projects, the Arboretum and Kingston Foreshores Eco-pond, from the exemption. In order for these projects to be exempt under the moratorium without exempting other unrelated projects it is necessary to refer directly to the land parcels of the Arboretum and Eco-pond in the Regulation.
