Australian Capital Territory Repealed Acts

This legislation has been repealed.

PLANNING AND LAND ACT 2002 (REPEALED) - SECT 14

    (1)     The Minister may give the authority a written statement that sets out the main principles that are to govern planning and land development in the ACT (the statement of planning intent ).

    (2)     The Minister must—

        (a)     present a copy of the statement of planning intent to the Legislative Assembly within 6 sitting days after the day it is given to the authority; and

        (b)     if the copy would not be presented to the Legislative Assembly under paragraph (a) within 14 days after the day it is given to the authority—give a copy of the statement to members of the Legislative Assembly within the 14 days.

    (3)     To remove any doubt, the statement of planning intent does not authorise a person to whom the Land (Planning and Environment) Act 1991 , section 8 (Effect of plan) applies to do anything inconsistent with the plan.

Example

The statement of planning intent may include policy material inconsistent with the territory plan, but the plan would have to be amended before the policy could be implemented.

Note     An example is part of the Act, is not exhaustive and may extend, but does not limit, the meaning of the provision in which it appears (see Legislation Act, s 126 and s 132).
