On behalf of the Minister, the State Planning Office has released a position paper titled – Preventing delays on development assessment timeframes, for a 2 month consultation period. The Tasmanian Government is committed to delivering an improved planning system. It is actively considering ways to reduce unnecessary delays for decisions on development applications. The Land Use Planning and Approvals Act 1993 has statutory timeframes for various processes in the assessment and determination of development applications by councils. The position paper outlines the existing legislative framework around these processes and provides guided consultation questions aimed at identifying the issues and exploring potential solutions. Written submissions are invited until 5pm Friday, 8 May 2026.
Matters raised during the consultation period will inform further action in response to fulfilling the government’s commitment to improve development assessment timeframes.
Attendees are requested to read the discussion paper prior to attending this roundtable, to ensure an informed discussion. This can be accessed here.
