Public Works Amendment Bill
Bills are proposals to make a new law or to change an existing one. Only Parliament can pass a bill. Each bill goes through several stages, giving MPs and the public the chance to have their say.
This bill amends the Public Works Act 1981 to improve the efficiency, effectiveness, and clarity of land acquisition, objections, and compensation functions in the Act.MP in charge
