Clause 6.11

Insert after clause 6.10:

6.11	Temporary workers’ accommodation
(1) The objectives of this clause are as follows:

(a)	to enable development for temporary workers’ accommodation if there is a demonstrated need to accommodate employees due to the nature of the work or the location of the land on which that work is carried out,
(b)	to ensure that temporary workers’ accommodation is appropriately located,
(c)	to ensure that the erection of temporary workers’ accommodation is not likely to have a detrimental impact on the future use of the land or to conflict with an existing land use,
(d)	to minimise the impact of temporary workers’ accommodation on local roads and infrastructure.

(2)	Development consent must not be granted to development for the purposes of temporary workers’ accommodation unless the consent authority is satisfied of the following:
(a) the development is to be located:

(i)      if the development relates to a mine—within 5 kilometres of the relevant mining lease under the Mining Act 1992, or

(ii)      in any other case—within 5 kilometres of the large-scale infrastructure in which persons are to be employed,

(b)	there is a need to provide temporary workers’ accommodation due either to the large-scale infrastructure or because of the remote or isolated location of the land on which the large-scale infrastructure is being carried out,
(c)	the development will not prejudice the subsequent carrying out of development on the land in accordance with this Plan and any other applicable environmental planning instrument,
(d)	water reticulation systems and sewerage systems will be provided to adequately meet the requirements of the development,

for the purpose of providing a place of temporary
