Consultation Outcome - December 2023

A public consultation on proposed amendments to the Retirement Villages Act 2016 ran from 31 March to 19 May 2023.

The consultation provided an opportunity for stakeholders to consider whether the proposed changes achieve the intent of the review recommendations, and if any additional changes to the legislation are needed before an amendment Bill is introduced in Parliament.

During the consultation period, Office for Ageing Well held 13 information sessions across metropolitan and regional South Australia that were attended by over 420 residents, operators and other interested stakeholders. The consultation resulted in 373 unique submissions.

The consultation is now closed and the outcomes will inform the Bill to amend the Retirement Villages Act 2016 which will then be introduced to State Parliament.
