"Things the Minister used to consider when making decisions"

Illustration for Crown Minerals Act 1991

When the Minister is making a decision, they have to think about certain things. The Minister's decision is part of the Crown Minerals Act 1991, which is a law about minerals that belong to the government. You can find more information about changes to this law in the Crown Minerals Amendment Act 2025.

The part of the law that says what the Minister has to think about has been repealed, which means it is no longer part of the law. This change happened on 6 August 2025. The Minister no longer has to consider those things when making a decision.
