Summary

This Act serves to amend s 22 of the Crown Land Management Act 2009 (SA) (CLMA). Under the original Act, unalienated Crown land under may be dedicated for a specific purpose. Leases granted over dedicated land by a person other than the Minister have no effect unless the Minister has consented to the grant of the lease. The Act includes a new s 22(5) stipulating that if councils grant leases of dedicated land under s 202 of the Local Government Act 1999 (SA), Ministerial consent is not required where native title has been extinguished or the council is satisfied that the grant of the lease will not affect native title.
