| Summary |
The terms of the reference were as follows: subject to parliamentary approval, the Department of Defence proposes to enter into an agreement with the Victorian Urban Land Authority for the decontamination of the site of the former Albion Explosives Factory at Deer Park in Melbourne's western suburbsn This would be part of a package of arrangements which would also allow the Urban Land Authority to develop the 460 hectare site for housing, industrial, retail and community services, setting land aside for nature conservation purposes, for open space and for habitat protection. Sale of undeveloped or developed clean areas of the site would be carried out by the Urban Land Authority. The decontamination of the site would be managed by the Urban Land Authority. The return to the Department of Defence for the sale of its land would be a series of payments from the Urban Land Autority, based on the value of the land assessed in an uncontaminated state. Under these arrangements, the net cost to Defence for the remaining remediation works is estimated to be $3.84 million |
