Meeting with Minister for Innovation and Better Regulation
A delegation of SCA (NSW) Directors met last week with the Minister for Innovation and Better Regulation,
Victor Dominello, MP. We were given an excellent opportunity to discuss the new strata laws with the
Minister who has promised one further round of consultation before the final Bill is put before NSW
Parliament.
The timetable for this will likely see a draft exposure Bill released to the public in the next couple of months,
followed by time for submissions, then the Bill will be finalised and into Parliament in the second half of
2015.
The bill may be operational around July 2016.
