and no other dwelling-house is erected on the land.
The Council may grant consent to the erection of a dwelling-house on land to which this clause applies where that land, before a subdivision lawfully approved by the Council under the law as in force at the time of the subdivision, had been part of an existing holding on which a dwelling-house could lawfully have been erected under the law then in force, even though the size of the allotment is less than the minimum size otherwise required by this clause.
Subject to clause 21, nothing shall prevent the erection of a dwelling-house on land on which another dwelling-house which was lawfully erected is situated, where the dwelling-house is intended to replace the other dwelling-house and is not occupied until the other dwelling-house is demolished or its occupation has permanently ceased.
Notwithstanding subclause (2), the Council shall not consent to the erection of a dwelling-house on an existing holding which complies with the provisions of subclause 2 (c) where the existing holding has an area of less than:

Where land within Zone No 1 (a), 1 (b) or 1 (c):
(a) is being lawfully used for a purpose other than agriculture, a dwelling-house, home industry, home occupation or forestry, or
(b) may lawfully be used for a purpose other than agriculture, a dwelling-house, home industry, home occupation or forestry by reason of a development consent granted in respect of that land,
the Council may consent to a subdivision by which that land is excised if the Council is satisfied that the allotment will continue to be used, or be used, for that purpose.
The amendment of this plan by the State Environmental Planning Policy (Rural Lands) 2008 does not affect any entitlement arising under a provision of this plan (as in force before that amendment) to erect a dwelling-house on a lot, if:
(a) the lot was created before that commencement, or
(b) development consent to the creation of the lot was applied for, or granted, before that commencement.
