Section 32 of the Development Act 1993 states that any acts or activities defined as development can be undertaken with a development approval. A development approval could be made up of one or more of six consents. In this regard, the required number of consents depends on the nature and kind of development proposal. When all necessary consents have been issued, the relevant authority can issue a development approval to the applicant.
