4. Expert Group Meeting 2005 Centre for Spatial Data Infrastructures and Land Administration Department of Geomatics, The University of Melbourne Research was a journey principally to identify a National Vision for LAS in Australia, and show our European visitors the Australian achievements in web based solutions. Simple ideas met – technology issues institutional issues historical issues The story is organised because of our partners and their contributions, particularly Professor Stig Enemark. I am still changing my ideas and keeping a wide open horizon. Professors Ian Williamson and the researchers at the Centre are the key to success of this project. It has been a joint intellectual and administrative exercise.

6. Expert Group Meeting 2005 Centre for Spatial Data Infrastructures and Land Administration Department of Geomatics, The University of Melbourne Starting point To build an explanation of how modern land markets work? What makes some countries run successful markets? Half the story : De Soto The Mystery of Capital– We passport land: we give it an identity. PS, we do not passport “land”, but abstract “rights” in land. Other half of the story: We also need - Cognitive capacity Trust and confidence in government Mutually reasonable arrangements in public and private sectors

11. Expert Group Meeting 2005 Centre for Spatial Data Infrastructures and Land Administration Department of Geomatics, The University of Melbourne wealth acceleration tools used in developed land markets Corporatisation - ability of business to separate risk from capital, debt from equity – for protection of creditors Securitisation - ability to convert balance sheet asset into liquid funds and create another layer of commodities Separation - ability to separate ownership and management, benefit entitlement from capital input, layers of interests in same land or resources The systems used to build these capacities mix private and public sectors. The LAS is the essential foundation of their success. The more streamlined the LAS, the better the wealth acceleration capacity of the complex property market.

Expert Group Meeting 2005 Centre for Spatial Data Infrastructures and Land Administration Department of Geomatics, The University of Melbourne Market issues in land administration are familiar territory. But we are claiming land administration delivers ‘triple bottom line’ sustainability economic social environmental

14. Expert Group Meeting 2005 Centre for Spatial Data Infrastructures and Land Administration Department of Geomatics, The University of Melbourne Graphic Nathaneal Scott, Tim Colbatch, The Age, 4 July 05. Housing ‘bubble’ doubled household wealth between 1998 and 2004. Predictions for market correction are common in 2005. “ABN AMRO's research found that almost two- thirds of Australian household wealth is now in housing, with a market value of $3.2 trillion - almost six times households' annual income. Over the past 45 years, the value of housing has, on average, been just three-and-a-half times household income, and for much of that period interest rates were as low as now or lower. While 64 per cent of Australian households' wealth was in real estate, just 6 per cent was in ownership of shares, the bank said. Another 18 per cent was in superannuation, 8 per cent in cash or bank deposits, and 3 per cent in cars and other durables.” SOCIAL VALUES
