SEPP 55 - Application to Planning Proposals & Gateway Determinations

Moorebank Recyclers Pty Ltd v Tanlane Pty Ltd (No 2)  [2017] NSWLEC 186.

In this case, the NSW Land and Environment Court considered the application of Clause 6 of State Environmental Planning Policy No 55 - Remediation of Land (SEPP 55):

  1. to the preparation of a Planning Proposal; and
  2. to the making of a Gateway determination.

The Court found that the Clause 6 of SEPP 55 was not engaged (and so did not need to be complied with) in the making of either decision under challenge.
