S. 12(1A) inserted by No. 48/2024 s. 6.
In addition, for the declaration of a transport project that is a program of works or projects under section 10(1)(b), the Premier must be satisfied that—
the works or projects that constitute the program of works or projects are sufficiently connected to each other to justify the program being designated as a single declared project; and
the majority of the works or projects within the program contain works that are not, or will not be, minor or routine.
In making an assessment under subsection (1), the Premier must have regard to the project declaration guidelines.
