(b) may exercise, to the extent necessary to comply with paragraph (a), any function that the Trust may exercise in relation to land within the Parklands.

(3) This section does not authorise the exercise of a function by the Trust or a government agency that would conflict with the exercise of its functions under any other Act.

(4) Land of a government agency comprising part of the Parklands must not be sold, leased, exchanged or otherwise disposed of unless--

(a) where the government agency concerned is not a local authority--the Minister responsible for the government agency has consulted with the Minister administering this Act, or

(b) where the government agency concerned is a local authority--the local authority has consulted with the Minister administering this Act.

(5) However, consultation is not required under subsection (4) in relation to a lease or licence for a term that, together with the term of any further lease or licence that may be granted under an option in respect of it, does not exceed 25 years.

(6) A failure by a Minister responsible for a government agency, or a government agency, to comply with a provision of this section in relation to land of the government agency does not invalidate any action of the government agency in relation to the land.
