Ms Rachel Minch:

That is certainly possible. If the error is procedural and a submission was not taken into account, the appropriate remedy would be to take the matter back to make sure the board can have regard to that submission. If there has been an error around environmental assessment, that could lead to a different outcome. It is a good point. Section 146A and that kind of amendment are directed at correcting the more superficial errors that do not affect the legal validity or the substance of a decision.
