The Queensland Government has introduced a Bill to undo those
parts of the April 2011 amendment to the Body Corporate &
Community Management Act that relate to the contribution
entitlements for existing Community Titles Schemes.
Owners in schemes that have had adjustment order contribution
entitlements reversed will be able to apply to have the
entitlements reinstated. This means that where the Tribunal has
made a determination as to what is fair and equitable in relation
to contribution entitlements; that determination can now be
reapplied.
The other effect is that contribution entitlements in a
Community Titles Schemes can again be reviewed and adjusted to
maintain an equitable allocation of the costs of operating the
Community Titles Schemes rather than being locked into the original
entitlements that may no longer be appropriate.
