made under the 
Public Place Names Act 1989 — section 3 (Minister to determine names)

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

The Public Place Names Act 1989 provides for the naming of divisions and public places and, in particular, section 3 empowers the Minister to determine in writing, notified in the ACT Legislation Register, the name of a division or public place.

Pursuant to section 254A of the Legislation Act 2001, the Minister has delegated the power under the Public Place Names Act 1989 to name a division or public place to delegated officers of the
Environment and Sustainable Development Directorate.

This instrument determines the names of five new roads in the Division of Casey as specified in the schedule and associated plan. The theme for the naming of public places in Casey is diplomats, public servants and administrators.

The number of women and men after whom divisions or public places have been named in the last 10 years, and whether the names of women are well represented, has been considered as required by the Public Place Names Act 1989.

This instrument commemorates two women and three men.
