Land Use Planning and Approvals Act 1993

A planning authority, within 28 days from the day on which it receives from a person an application under section 40T(1) for a permit, may, by notice in writing served on the person, require the person to provide to the planning authority additional information before it considers the application.

A period referred to in section 38(2) or (3) or section 40D(a) does not run, in relation to a request under section 37 to which an application under section 40T(1) relates, while additional information that the planning authority has required the person to provide has not, in the opinion of the planning authority, been provided to the planning authority.

If additional information is not provided, in accordance with a request under subsection (1), within 5 years after the request is made and the request is not revoked in accordance with a direction under section 40V(4), the application under section 40T(1) for a permit, to which the request relates, lapses.
