This section applies to a development application, or change application, relating to—

development on land that becomes balance port land if—

the application was made but not decided under the Planning Act before the relevant day for the land; and

the Port of Brisbane Corporation is—

if the application is a development application—the assessment manager for the application; or

if the application is a change application—the responsible entity for the application; or

development on land that stops being Brisbane core port land if the development is assessable development for the Planning Act under the Brisbane port LUP.

On the relevant day for the land—

if the land is in the Northshore Hamilton urban development area under the Economic Development Act 2012—MEDQ under that Act is taken to be, for the Planning Act—

if the application is a development application—the assessment manager for the application; or

if the application is a change application—the responsible entity for the application; and

if the application is a change application—the responsible entity for the application; and

the development assessment process stops for the application.

As soon as practicable after the relevant day for the land, the former decision-maker for the application must give the application to the new decision-maker for the application.

The new decision-maker may, in writing, ask the former decision-maker for any information or material about the application the new decision-maker reasonably requires to process and decide the application.

The former decision-maker must comply with a request under subsection (4) within 10 business days after receiving the request.

On receiving the application, and any further information or material requested under subsection (4), the new decision-maker must consider the application and the further information or material.

Subject to this part, the Planning Act applies for processing and deciding the application.

Despite subsection (8), the new decision-maker must assess the application against the matters (including the former land use plan) that would have applied for the assessment before the relevant day for the land.
