Valuation of Land Act 1971

The Valuer-General may, for the purposes of this Act, serve upon the owner of any land forms to be completed and returned to the Valuer-General within such time as the Valuer-General may determine, and specifies upon the forms.

The forms will contain such questions as the Valuer-General may determine with reference to—

the use of the land;

the nature and value of improvements on the land;

the tenancies (if any) to which the land is subject;

any other matters relevant to the valuation of the land.

The Valuer-General may, if he or she thinks fit, require any person by whom a form is completed and returned under this section to verify the contents of the form by statutory declaration.

A person must not fail to complete and return a form served upon him or her under subsection (1), or return a form containing information that is false or misleading in any material particular, or fail to comply with a requirement made under subsection (3). Maximum penalty: $2 500. Expiation fee: $75.
