Yes. The ministerial amendment No. 585 deletes the following: "(d) proposed Chapter 6 State authority emergency development in respect of which the State authority concerned is required to comply with sections 152 and 154." Section 152, on page 290, refers to a "Public notification procedure". Section 154, on page 294, refers to "Confirmation by State authority".

First, it would be helpful if the Minister of State explained to us, in summary, what a "Chapter 6 State authority emergency development" is and then why it is no longer being required to be compliant with sections 152 and 154. These small technical amendments always make me nervous.
