Conditionally rateable land

This page has information about land that is conditionally rateable.

Under section 219 of the Local Government Act 2019 (the Act), conditionally rateable land is defined as:

  • land held under a pastoral lease
  • land occupied under a mining tenement (mineral and petroleum titles), or
  • other land prescribed by regulation as conditionally rateable.

Conditionally rateable land is only rateable in accordance with a Gazette notice made by the minister, at least 2 months before the commencement of the financial year in which the rates are to be collected.

Prior to setting the rates, the minister consults with the ministers responsible for the mining and pastoral matters.

The rates are collected each year by the local government council for the area where the mining tenement or pastoral lease is located.

Councils may make submissions to the minister in relation to conditionally rateable land by 31 December in the year before the beginning of the relevant financial year.

Under the Act, rateable mining tenements do not include titles such as exploration licences. Also, in the 2023-24 Gazette notice, a condition was included that excludes titles without current authorisation for the commercial production of minerals from being rated.
