Crown Land Management Act 2016

In addition to a plan of management, the Minister may do any of the following—

require or permit an applicable Crown land manager of dedicated or reserved Crown land to prepare one or more other plans for the management of the land,

require an applicable Crown land manager to submit a draft plan to the Minister for approval before it is adopted,

require an applicable Crown land manager to provide a copy of a plan the manager has made to the Minister even if it does not require the Minister’s approval.

If a plan requires the Minister’s approval before it is adopted, an applicable Crown land manager can adopt the plan under this section only with the approval of the Minister. The Minister may require changes to the plan before giving approval.

The applicable Crown land manager must inform the Minister when the manager intends to exercise functions in a manner inconsistent with an adopted plan. A failure to do so does not, however, affect the validity of the exercise of the function.
