A draft Telecommunications Facilities and Broadband Code has been prepared, which lists the telecommunication facilities that are proposed to be exempt or complying development and therefore do not require a development application. It incorporates the facilities covered by the Commonwealth Government’s Telecommunications (Low Impact Facilities) Determination 1997. The draft code provides best practice principles for the site selection, design, construction and operation of telecommunication facilities in order to minimise visual, safety and health impacts

- Description: The Draft Centres Policy provides a planning framework for the development of new and existing retail and commercial centres in NSW. The policy is based on six principles:
- Retail and commercial activity should be located in centres to ensure the most efficient use of transport and other infrastructure, proximity to labour markets, and to improve the amenity and liveability of those centres.
- The planning system should be flexible enough to enable centres to grow, and new centres to form.
- The market is best placed to determine the need for retail and commercial development. The role of the planning system is to regulate the location and scale of development to accommodate market demand.
- The planning system should ensure that the supply of available floorspace always accommodates the market demand, to help facilitate new entrants into the market and promote competition.
- The planning system should support a wide range of retail and commercial premises in all centres and should contribute to ensuring a competitive retail and commercial market.
- Retail and commercial development should be well designed to ensure they contribute to the amenity, accessibility, urban context and sustainability of centres.
