It doesn't contain the actual rules; it merely authorises and records changes made elsewhere. The real substance is in the Tasmanian Development Act 1983 itself.

It affects persons and bodies governed by the Principal Act because it changes the Act’s text; the Order itself is procedural and leaves the concrete policy effects to the specific amendments incorporated (cl.4)."},"summary":{"complexity_score":2,"scope_assessment":{"changed":false,"description":"Based on the available metadata, there is no evidence of scope change from the original 2005 instrument.
