6   Interpretation—references to equivalent land use zones

(1)  A reference in this Policy to a land use zone that is equivalent to a named land use zone is a reference to a land use zone under an environmental planning instrument that is not made as provided by section 33A (2) of the Act:

(a)  that the Director-General has determined under clause 1.6 of State Environmental Planning Policy (Exempt and Complying Development Codes) 2008 is a land use zone in which equivalent land uses are permitted to those permitted in that named land use zone, or

(b)  if no such determination has been made in respect of the particular zone, that is a land use zone in which (in the opinion of the relevant authority) equivalent land uses are permitted to those permitted in that named land use zone.

(2)  An assessment made by a relevant authority under subclause (1) (b) applies only in respect of the particular development that is proposed to be carried out and more than one such assessment may be made in respect of the same land use zone.

(3)  In this clause, relevant authority means:

(a)  the public authority proposing to carry out the development, or on whose behalf the development is proposed to be carried out, or

(b)  if the development is to be carried out by or on behalf of a person other than a public authority, the Director-General.

Note. Land use zones that are named in this Policy are those set out in the standard instrument.
