Draft Consultation Protocol
As part of the commitment to consultation, the NCA has prepared a draft Consultation Protocol (the protocol). This seeks to formalise, clarify and guide the community and stakeholders to ensure consistency in the application of consultation within the legislative requirements, as outlined in the Act and the Plan.
The protocol sets out the minimum requirements for consultation which must be carried out:
- when the Plan is being made or amended;
- when a Development Control Plan (DCP) is being made;
- on a development application; and
- when the NCA informs community and stakeholders on an annual basis.
