74 Recording or refusing to record findings of cultural heritage study

(1) When the chief executive records, or refuses to record, the findings of the cultural heritage study in the register, the chief executive must give written notice of the recording, or refusal to record, to—

(a) the sponsor; and

(b) each person who is an owner or occupier of a part of the study area; and

(c) each local government whose local government area includes a part of the study area; and

(d) each endorsed party for the study; and

(e) each Aboriginal cultural heritage body for a part of the study area.

(2) The recording of findings in the register is not ineffective only because—

(a) it is open to a person under division 5 to object to the recording of the findings; or

(b) a person entitled to a written notice under subsection (1) does not receive the notice.

(3) If the chief executive refuses to record the findings of the cultural heritage study in the register, the chief executive must include in each written notice given under subsection (1) a statement of the chief executive’s reasons for refusing to record the findings.
