IPART has been asked by the NSW Government to conduct a review into the development of a rating framework and complementary service pricing system for Local Land Services NSW. We were required to develop an efficient and transparent cost recovery framework, including the proportion to be funded by Government, for Local Land Services Boards to set fees for the different services provided. We were also to advise on an efficient rating base for compulsory fee collection and an efficient fee collection mechanism. The review also developed an audit methodology for assessing the extent the cost recovery framework has been applied by the Land Services Boards.
