    PARLIAMENT OF VICTORIA PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES (HANSARD) LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL FIFTY-EIGHTH PARLIAMENT FIRST SESSION Book 2 Questions on Notice 9, 10 and 11 February 2016 Internet: www.parliament.vic.gov.au/downloadhansard By authority of the Victorian Government Printer Following a select committee investigation, Victorian Hansard was conceived when the following amended motion was passed by the Legislative Assembly on 23 June 1865: That in the opinion of this house, provision should be made to secure a more accurate report of the debates in Parliament, in the form of Hansard. The sessional volume for the first sitting period of the Fifth Parliament, from 12 February to 10 April 1866, contains the following preface dated 11 April: As a preface to the first volume of “Parliamentary Debates” (new series), it is not inappropriate to state that prior to the Fifth Parliament of Victoria the newspapers of the day virtually supplied the only records of the debates of the Legislature. With the commencement of the Fifth Parliament, however, an independent report was furnished by a special staff of reporters, and issued in weekly parts. This volume contains the complete reports of the proceedings of both Houses during the past session. In 2016 the Hansard Unit of the Department of Parliamentary Services continues the work begun 150 years ago of providing an accurate and complete report of the proceedings of both houses of the Victorian Parliament.

  • Hobsons Bay Activity Centres Strategy: Technical Report
    Hobsons Bay Activity Centres Strategy: Technical Report December 2016 Council acknowledges all language groups of the Kulin Nation as the traditional owners of these municipal lands. We recognise the first people’s relationship to this land and offer our respect to their elders past and present. Council acknowledges the legal responsibility to comply with the Charter of Human Rights and Responsibilities Act 2006 and the Equal Opportunity Act 2010. The Charter of Human Rights and Responsibilities Act 2006 is designed to protect the fundamental rights and freedoms of citizens. The Charter gives legal protection to 20 fundamental human rights under four key values that include freedom, respect, equality and dignity. Preface The Hobsons Bay Activity Centres Strategy: Technical Report has been prepared by Essential Economics Pty Ltd in association with Hansen Partnership and Martyn Group. In preparing the Strategy, a detailed consultation program has been undertaken with the assistance of Hobsons Bay City Council, including workshops, face-to-face meetings and a community survey. An activity centres strategy seeks to provide a sensible planning and development policy framework that ensures the commercial areas in a municipality function in a manner that supports business growth, employment and community wellbeing. This technical report updates the existing activity centre policy framework in Hobsons Bay. It reflects recent changes to the planning system in Victoria and ensures that policy settings are consistent with current requirements. A particular focus is to ensure that a balanced approach to residential development in activity centres is implemented so that future demand for residential development which is of a greater level of density is achieved, while respecting heritage and built form values.
