The Queensland Governmentdeveloped legislation as part of the BodyCorporate and Community Management Act,1997 to control the operation, establish theresponsibilities and protect the interest of suchbusinesses. While the Queensland industry farexceeds that of Western Australia in terms ofthe number of management rights businesses,the taskforce considered that with continuedgrowth in tourism developments under strataschemes, a review of the legislativerequirements of such businesses waswarranted. A focus in such a review on thetourism industry, with licensing of operators toensure at least basic skills in touristaccommodation management, was viewed ashaving potential long-term benefits for theindustry. The Department of Consumer andEmployment Protection has released a paperon the Regulation of Holiday AccommodationManagers, which reviews the need forimproved management of the industry.Recommendation 25:That in conjunction with the outcomes of thereview, Regulation of Holiday AccommodationManagers, the Government urgently reviewthe need for the development of managementrights or similar legislation and the regulationand accreditation of holiday accommodationmanagers, with a focus on the particularneeds of the tourist accommodation industry.8.4.6 Consultation and reviewThe taskforce recommendations provide for arelatively significant increase in focus ontourism land use planning by local governmentand the WAPC, and important changes intourism development policy.
