- The structure and content of planning schemes.
- What the relevant parts of the Planning and Environment Act 1987 are.
- In what circumstances planning permits are referred.
- What the timelines are.
- What issues a referral authority can include as a permit condition.
- What a valid planning permit condition is and how to write one.
- What the role of VCAT is and how referral authorities can participate.
