State Development and Public Works Organisation Act 1971

An interim planning instrument for an SDA change approved by the Minister under section 85J—

is taken to be a temporary local planning instrument, made by the relevant local government, under the Planning Act, section 23; and

may be amended or repealed under the Planning Act.

The interim planning instrument may suspend or otherwise affect the operation of the relevant local government’s planning instrument, but does not amend or repeal the instrument.

However, the interim planning instrument—

does not create a superseded planning scheme under the Planning Act; and

is not an adverse planning change under that Act.

The interim planning instrument, with or without an amendment, has effect for 2 years after the day it takes effect under subsection (5), or a shorter period stated in the instrument, unless the instrument is repealed sooner.

The interim planning instrument takes effect at the same time as the SDA change.

This section applies despite anything stated in the Planning Act.
