    Except as otherwise provided by this Schedule, an application made to a relevant authority under section 39 of the repealed Act that has not been finally determined before the designated day may be continued and completed under the provisions of the repealed Act, except that the relevant authority for the purposes of the application will be, from the designated day, a relevant authority under this Act determined in accordance with a scheme prescribed by the regulations.

  2. (2)

    A relevant authority under this Act acting under subclause (1) may—

    1. (a)

      adopt any findings or determinations of a relevant authority under the repealed Act that may be relevant to an application to which that subclause applies; and

    To avoid doubt, section 125 of this Act, insofar as it provides for a deemed consent notice or a deemed planning consent, does not apply in relation to an application to which this clause applies.

20—Major development or projects

  1. (1)

    The repealed Act will continue to apply to and in relation to a proposed development or project that is the subject of a declaration under section 46 of the repealed Act before the designated day (and that has not been the subject of a decision of the Governor under section 48 of the repealed Act before the designated day) except that section 48 of the repealed Act will, on and after the designated day, apply as if a reference to the Governor were a reference to the Minister.

  2. (2)

    A decision on an application to which this clause applies will, once given under subclause (1), be taken to be a decision given under this Act (and this Act will apply in relation to the relevant development authorisation subject to any provision made by this Schedule).

  3. (3)

    Section 131(29) of this Act does not apply to or in relation to a regulation made under section 131(28)(b) of this Act if the Governor, at the time the regulation is made, declares that the Governor is satisfied that the regulation is the same as, or substantially the same as, the regulation applying under section 49(19)(b) of the repealed Act immediately before the regulation under the repealed Act is revoked and substituted by the regulation under this Act.

22—Building work

  1. (1)

    Subject to subclause (2), section 139 of this Act will extend to a development approval given before the designated day.

  2. (2)

    Subclause (1) does not apply if a notice relating to the relevant building work has been served on the owner of the affected site under section 60 of the repealed Act before the designated day.

  3. (3)

    In a case applying under subclause (2), section 60 of the repealed Act will continue to apply in such a case until the matter has been finally determined under the repealed Act.

  4. (4)

    Section 140 of this Act will extend to building work in relation to which a development approval has been given before the designated day.

  5. (5)

    To avoid doubt, nothing in this Act affects the operation of a notice given under section 61 of the repealed Act before the designated day or any right under section 62, 63 or 64 of the repealed Act insofar as those sections relate to any action commenced or completed before the relevant day.
