Development assessment is governed by the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979, with a fast-track complying development pathway assessed by council or a registered private certifier.
NSW runs its access-to-information regime under the GIPA Act, which is built around a positive duty to publish rather than merely a right to request. That framing is unusually useful for this register: where a body holds information it is required to make openly available and does not, the gap is a compliance question rather than a matter of preference.
