The Minister of Planning is considering Council's response and will make a decision. The final DPA with the proposed listings will be gazetted by the Minister and referred to the Environment, Resources and Development Committee of State Parliament for its review.

With this Part 1 DPA nearing completion, further consideration can also be given by the Minister and Council to the Part 2 DPA in the next few months.
