Draft LUPA Amendment (Development Assessment Panels) Bill 2025

This consultation has closed!

The Tasmanian Government wants to change how some development applications are approved by creating independent panels instead of letting local councils decide. They say this will make the process faster and clearer, but some councils and community groups worry it will reduce local input. The plan was rejected once, so the government is now asking for public feedback before trying again in 2025.
