7.State Planning Interests
State Planning Policy

A new State Planning Policy (SPP) was introduced on 3rd July 2017 and defines the Queensland
Government’s policies about matters of state interest in land use planning and development. The SPP
only applies to development assessment if the planning scheme has not yet appropriately integrated the
SPP. If there is a discrepancy between a local planning scheme and a state planning policy, then what is
outlined in the state planning policy overrides the planning scheme. The Noosa Plan does not reflect the SPP
and assessment against the SPP is required. The State interest policies and assessment benchmarks in Part E of
the State Planning Policy are addressed below.

State Development Assessment Provisions

The State Development Assessment Provisions (SDAP) set out the matters of interest to the state for
development assessment, where the State Assessment and Referral Agency (SARA) is responsible for assessing
or deciding development applications as assessment manager or as a referral agency. The Development
Assessment Mapping System (DAMS) does not identify any referral triggers.
