What a pity the NSW Minister for Fair Trading has been caught out (today’s Sydney Morning Herald, iPad edition at least).
Whilst defending himself, I certainly hope he will have the time to finish his extensive review of the strata system. Lord knows it needs it.

Right now, that’s an allegation, not a proven fact. But I too hope he is not distracted – Tony Roberts is the very first Fair Trading Minister on my eight-year watch to seem prepared to get to grips with the complexities of strata issues. Oh, and just in case you were wondering, my politics are somewhere to the left of loony.

On the other hand, this story in the Herald doesn’t look too clever. Actually, this has a whiff of insider political back-stabbing. I’m supposed to be meeting the Minister this week – I’ll ask him.

His ‘ming’ is merciless. As for his mind, however, His department are about to release their discussion paper upon which the next round of strata law changes will be based.
I’ll reserve judgement until then but I have to say that he has been the most engaged of all the ministers that there have been at Fair Trading since I started writing about it.

Was very impressed with the Minister at our meeting. He seems genuinely passionate about strata reform and the discussion document coming out next week is going to have some real bombshells in it (I’m sworn to secrecy but it’s very real and mostly good).
We’ll be all over it like white on rice when it emerges blinking into the cold light of strata cynicism. Until then, watch this space
