(a) Planning approval has two aspects, approval of the proposed land use (use) and approval of the proposed scale, design and configuration of buildings and works (development).
(b) Government will ensure that use of the land for the project is permitted under the relevant planning scheme. Where the use is not already in existence, or not permitted by the relevant scheme, government will assume the risk of amending the scheme to ensure that the proposed land use is permitted by applicable planning Laws.
(c) Consistent with the private party's assumption of design risk, obtaining 'development' approval for the buildings and works (where a planning permit is required for such development) is the responsibility of the private party.
