Panel and Committee Reports

The panel and advisory committee reports that have been released over the last two years are available below.

On this page:


Planning scheme amendments panel reports

Panel reports about planning scheme amendments are made available 28 days after the report has been submitted by the panel.

Details of panel reports for planning scheme amendments can be viewed on Amendments Online. Proposals that are the subject of more that one amendment will be listed under each of the relevant amendments.

Follow the instructions provided to select the relevant planning scheme amendment. The panel report for that amendment (if available) can be viewed by selecting the 'Panel Report' link at the start of each amendment record.

Advisory committee reports

Advisory committee reports are released at the discretion of the Minister for Planning. This usually happens once a final decision has been made on the matter under consideration. Reports are not automatically made publicly available 28 days after the submission of the report.

Unlike planning scheme amendment panel reports, they are not automatically available 28 days after the panel's report has been submitted.
