(1) If a project Order has been made in respect of a Commonwealth Games
project-

   (a)  at a temporary Commonwealth Games venue; or

   (b)  at a Commonwealth Games venue in respect of which a designated access
        area Order has been made-

then as soon as practicable after the revocation of-

   (c)  the venue Order declaring the area to be a temporary
        Commonwealth Games venue; or

   (d)  the designated access area Order-

the responsible person must cause the temporary venue or the designated access
area (as the case requires) to be restored to the required condition.

(2) For the purposes of subsection (1), the required condition-

   (a)  in relation to Crown land, is the condition determined jointly by the
        Minister, the Minister administering Part IX of the Land Act 1958 and
        the Minister administering the Crown Land (Reserves) Act 1978 before
        the making of the relevant project Order; and

   (b)  in the case of any other land, is a condition reasonably comparable to
        its condition immediately before it became a temporary venue or a
        designated access area.

(3) If the responsible person fails to comply with subsection (1), the
Minister may, by written direction, require that person to restore the land to
the condition that the Minister requires.

(4) If the responsible person fails to comply with a written direction under
subsection (3), the Minister-

   (a)  may cause the land to be restored to the condition that the Minister
        requires; and

   (b)  may recover the costs involved from the responsible person as a debt
        due to the Crown in any court of competent jurisdiction.

(5) The Minister must consult with the Minister administering Part IX of the
Land Act 1958 and the Minister administering the
Crown Land (Reserves) Act 1978 before giving a direction under subsection (3)
or causing the land to be restored under subsection (4) in relation to Crown
land.

(6) In this section, responsible person in relation to a project Order means
the person or body nominated in the project Order in accordance with section
17 as the person or body responsible for the Commonwealth Games project to
