Reps move to tighten rules on sale of federal assets

The House of Representatives is proposing a bill to create a National Public Assets Management Commission that will register, value, manage and oversee the disposal of all federal government assets held by ministries, departments, agencies and government-owned enterprises. The commission will maintain a central National Public Assets Register, require prior approval for any sale, lease or concession of public property, enforce compliance through binding directives, and ensure independent valuations, competitive processes and public-interest considerations before assets can be disposed of.
