Illustration for Fast-track Approvals Act 2024

When you get an approval under the Fast-track Approvals Act 2024, it has the same power as if it were granted under another relevant Act. This approval lasts for a certain time and has its own terms and conditions. You can find more information about specific approvals in sections like section 42(4)(a), (b), (c), or (d) or clauses 31 to 36 of Schedule 5.

The rules for approvals are different depending on what type of approval you get. For example, if you get a concession approval, you follow the rules in clauses 14 to 20 of Schedule 6. If you get a land exchange approval, you follow the rules in clauses 36 to 40 of Schedule 6.

There are specific rules for other types of approvals too, like wildlife approvals or archaeological authorities. You can find these rules in different schedules, such as clauses 7 and 8 of Schedule 7 for wildlife approvals or clause 9 of Schedule 8 for archaeological authorities. These rules help you understand what you can and cannot do with your approval.
