History

Previously known as the Land and Property Management Authority, the organisation had broader responsibilities including the above acitivites plus the management of certain government-owned land, the maintenance of recreational and visitor facilities, such as State Parks, Great North Walk and The Hume and Hovell Walking Track. However, on 1 April 2011, the Authority was abolished and some of its functions merged into the Department of Finance and Services, with operational divisions created including Land and Property Information, and the State Property Authority. The Authority's previous functions within the Office of Rural Affairs, Crown Lands, and the Soil Conservation Service were transfered to the Department of Trade and Investment, Regional Infrastructure and Services and Department of Primary Industries.
