MINOR CHANGE CRITERIA

The Planning Act 2016 defines a minor change as the following:
         minor change means a change that—
         (b) for a development approval—
            (i)    would not result in substantially different development; and
           (ii)    if a development application for the development, including the change, were made when the change
                   application is made would not cause—
                        A. the inclusion of prohibited development in the application; or
                        B. referral to a referral agency, other than to the chief executive, if there were no referral agencies
                            for the development application; or
                        C. referral to extra referral agencies, other than to the chief executive; or
                        D. a referral agency, in assessing the application under section 55(2), to assess the application
                            against, or have regard to, a matter, other than a matter the referral agency must have
                            assessed the application against, or had regard to, when the application was made; or
                        E. public notification if public notification was not required for the development application.
