Part 3A transitional arrangements announced

A significant number of residential, commercial, retail and coastal projects have been removed from the Part 3A assessment system and handed back to local councils for assessment under transitional arrangements announced by the Minister for Planning and Infrastructure Brad Hazzard today.

The transitional arrangements will be given effect via an amendment to the Major Development State Environmental Planning Policy, to be published today, and represent an important step in the process of repealing Part 3A in its entirety.
