The Committee adopted the inquiry on 24 May. 1.2 The terms of reference of the inquiry ask the Committee to examine the provision of amenity within the Parliamentary Triangle with particular reference to: Describing the changing nature of the working environment in the Parliamentary Triangle; The adequacy of retail services available in this precinct against the benchmark of like employment precincts located in the Capital; and Should these services be considered inadequate, recommend steps that would ameliorate that inadequacy. 1.3 With limited time available to take evidence on the issue, the Committee sought the views in particular of the National Capital Authority (NCA), national institutions within the Central National Area, government departments, the Community and Public Sector Union (CPSU) and the ACT Government. 1.4 The Committee received 13 submissions and one supplementary submission, which are listed at Appendix A. The Committee held 1 public hearing. A list of those organisations and individuals who gave evidence before the Committee is listed at Appendix B. 2 THE PROVISION OF AMENITY WITHIN THE PARLIAMENTARY TRIANGLE Scope and structure of the report 1.5 While the terms of reference of the inquiry refer specifically to the Parliamentary Triangle, the Committee is cognisant that the issues surrounding the inquiry impact on the whole of the Central National Area—taking in Barton, Russell and Acton as well as the Parliamentary Zone (Parkes).
