30F: Issue of national multiple-use approval
or “Rules for when the boss can give permission to use building plans more than once”

You could also call this:

“The government can say no to approving a building plan for many places and must explain why.”

If you apply for a national multiple-use approval, the chief executive can refuse to give it to you. This can happen if the chief executive is not happy with the things mentioned in section 30F. If they refuse, they must tell you in writing. The written notice will explain that they are refusing and why they are refusing.
