which may possibly affect the neighboring LGAs. JRP Panel will also concentrate on the rural areas where the LGAs are large spatially and have isolated population. Councils had to focus on the development happening in their LGAs and also assess the impact of the development in neighboring LGAs. JRPP is another decision making level in the Planning and Development assessment process. Council authorities in urban areas welcomed the JRPP which will encourage and aid in establishing large projects in their LGAs. But in rural areas JRPP will have less relevance as rural areas do not attract large development projects (Ruming, 2009). Increased cost and Time delay due to JRPP So it was the perspective of the local councils that the JRPP will be …show more content…
Meanwhile the state authorities saw JRPP as a way to have more efficiency in planning by eliminating the participation of the local council members. The presence of political members of the council in urban areas may become a hurdle in a move towards positive growth in planning and development of the city. So in such instances, JRPP will be surely beneficial for better planning of the city. The council argued that JRPP will be only pave way for time delay. They have highlighted that JRPP is just a replica of the prevalent structures and regulation in the council level. In few LGAs, Independent Hearing and Assessment Panels (IHAP) were formed to have independent view or observation on the development projects and these observations will be counted for the approval process. Council members mentioned that such a system is already present in the previous system and the JRPP will be just a mirror of it and be a cause for time delay (Ruming, 2009). Planning Assessment Commission and Planning Arbitrators Reforms and Amendments in the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 recommended inclusion of Planning Assessment Commission (PAC) and Planning Arbitrators (PA). The main aim of forming PAC and PA was to improve the NSW Planning Systems reforms and amendments. As per the study done by Ruming (2009), the PAC and PA had analogous functions as JRPP and Part 3A.
The Sandon Point was considered a potential State Significant site under the State Environment Planning Policy (Major Development) 2005. In April 2006, the Minister authorised Stockland and Anglican Retirement Villages to submit a concept plan for the development of Sandon Point, Wollongong. The concept plan was approved in December 2006. In November 2007 the Minister’s approval was challenged in Walker v Minister for Planning [2007] NSWLEC 741, 174 LGERA 127 due to the Minister’s failure to take in to consideration the principles of ecological sustainability, specifically, climate change and flooding. The Court of Appeal found the Minister guilty of failing to consider public interest in the concept planning stages and made it mandatory to be considered in the development approval stage.
In conclusion, every governing body holds a certain power for management and development of the cities, state, and nation. What I believe is that the local government should get power in policy making and make other decisions of particular areas within the state because local government will have more information about what are the actual need and wants of people of their locality. However, the local government should cooperate with the state government while implementing their policies. Furthermore, the laws and policies should be implemented by looking at all perceptive and values of the people over these issues.
Local government and the challenges of the future is a comprehensive topic and subject to many differing opinions as it relates to geographical area examination and their specific needs. Every country, province, city etc. has their own detailed challenges in urban and rural settings but internationally there are similarities.
With regard to a mayor-council form, the system itself is based upon the presence of numerous factors which lead to the creation of a range of types which share one basic foundation. As suggested by the premise of this form of local government, the primary actors which come together to continue the sustenance of this framework include the mayor and the council, both of which must be elected (Center for Governmental Research 1). Consequently, the presence of these two parties within the wider framework entails the extent to which each actor holds a certain degree or extent of authority in managing the affairs of the city, this notion implies that the distribution of power and authority maybe classified as relative or absolute wherein it may favor the elected mayor or the elected council in terms of possession of power on the basis of the chosen variation of the mayor-council form of government.
Explain legal issues, policies and procedures relevant to assessment, including those for confidentiality, health, safety and welfare
Mr. Browning’s body mass index (BMI) is 18.3, which I interpret as just below being considered a normal healthy weight. The normal BMI for a healthy weight is 18.5-24.9 (Treas & Wilkinson, 2014). Good nutrition is not only essential for health, but also is a key aspect of disease management (Treas & Wilkinson, 2014).
The reliability of an assessment in a perfect situation should produce the same results if marked by another tutor or if that examiner unknowingly receives the same paper again. If different marks are given the assessment is consequently unreliable and proves that this assessment is subjective.
According to Denhardt (2015) in the new public service theory it is essential to have a political project where city managers recognize the need to balance efficiency concerns with citizen

1.1 Explain the function of assessment in learning and development To meet timely a required predetermined standard with evidenced learning. Unlike the course work we were required to do at school which when marked showed the standard we had achieved. Assessment learning breaks down the required knowledge into bite size pieces which are topic specific, when completed and assessed each piece must contain all the required criteria to evidence the learners understanding. In my experience timely assessment during this period gives feedback to learner and assessor on progress, giving confidence to the learner that they will meet the assessment standard.
The second part of the assessment comprehends the developmental life cycle for the family. The developmental category reflects the family life cycle stages, the emotional process of transition and the tasks accomplished during each stage.
Planning at both urban and regional level in Australia exhibits several common features, shaped largely by the same challenges and managed by similar responses.
The regulatory body of the city, the Jodhpur Municipal Corporation (JMC) is responsible for undertaking all development projects within the city. They are also responsible for collecting municipal taxes. AMC also undertakes obligatory services- Fire Services, Street Lighting Services, Maintenance of Monuments & Open Spaces, Education Services, Ambulance Services, Maintenance of Factories and disposal and Shelter for Homeless and Poor.
Planning is for the common people and for the community development then it should not be complete concern of the planners or the central policy makers; rather it should be the concern of the whole community and whole society. Thus the traditional planning process needs to be revised and modified to make room for the common people to take part in the decision making process. The local communities, elected
At least, now alert citizens can slow down corrupt officers and politicians.Third, Indian politics will hopefully mature as more information passes through the hands of political rivals, police, judiciary, media and the people. The Act will reveal who is exploiting whom and how one can get justice for the poor and the needy. The judiciary will now have better data to decide against the corrupt.That sounds so far flung, doesn't it? Let us start from the district level. If the road leading to your town is washed out in the first rains of the season, you might like to ask who was given the contract to build that road, at what price and what the terms and conditions were.Was the contractor related to a Member of Parliament or a member of legislative assembly in that area? During the building of that road, did any government officer object to any deficiency or malpractice? Was there any communication in this regard? The concerned departments will have to come up with answers in the stipulated period.
