Freehold Land Acquisition for ACT Under Commonwealth Control
The Australian Capital Territory faces a major shift as the federal cabinet approves acquiring 253 freehold titles in Tharwa Hall and Oaks Estate. The $32.5 million plan would transfer land to Commonwealth control, with Lanyon exempted and landholders offered 49 year leases for improvements. Undeveloped land remains with the government for future sale, while compensation and development considerations shape short term actions. The move follows a 1968 committee recommendation and has seen 43 properties totaling 50 000 acres acquired since 1970.
