   5 State Regulatory Provisions

   The Planning Act 2016 prescribes the following categorising instruments as assessment benchmarks
   applicable to development applications:

         • the Planning Regulation 2017
         • the Planning Scheme for the local government area
         • any temporary local planning instrument; and
         • any variation approval.

   The Planning Regulation 2017 (the Regulation) prescribes assessment benchmarks for code
   assessable development applications. The following benchmarks are additional to the planning
   scheme to the extent they are not appropriately reflected in the planning scheme:

         •    the regional plan for a region, to the extent the regional plan is not identified in the planning
              scheme as being appropriately integrated in the planning scheme; and
         •    the State Planning Policy, part E, to the extent part E is not identified in the planning scheme
              as being appropriately integrated in the planning scheme; and
         •    any temporary State planning policy applying to the premises.

   The relevant assessment benchmarks are discussed in detail below.

      • Economic growth
      • Environment and heritage
      • Safety and resilience to hazards;
      • Emissions and hazardous activities; and
      • Infrastructure.

   Under part 2.1.1, the State interests not integrated or only partly integrated, include:
      • Natural hazards, risk and resilience for coastal hazards, in part, with respect to erosion prone
         areas.

   The subject is not mapped within a coastal hazard or erosion prone area; therefore, no further
   discussion is required with respect to the SPP. The existing church is not a State heritage listed place.

   5.3 Planning Regulation 2017

   The State Assessment Referral Agency (SARA) is responsible for carrying out this function and
   uses criteria from the State Development Assessment Provisions (SDAP). Schedule 10, Part 8,
   Subdivision 2, Table 1 of the Planning Regulation 2017 confirms the assessment benchmarks
   for a local heritage place are those identified in the local government’s planning scheme as the
   relevant provisions of a local categorising instrument. The planning scheme includes the Local
