Planning framework welcomed
Shadow Planning Minister Lara Giddings has welcomed the Government’s progression of planning reforms.
“Labor welcomes the Government’s new planning legislation which provides a basic framework for a singular state-wide planning scheme and builds on the hard work of the previous Government,” Ms Giddings said.
“It’s important to note the specifics of that scheme are yet to be fully understood which has concerned a number of stakeholders.
“The devil is likely to be in the detail.
“Labor will continue to work closely with all stakeholders to ensure their voices are heard.
“Tasmania has led the way on planning reform and already has one of the country’s most efficient schemes.”
