The administering agency must decide whether it is appropriate to deliver the environmental offset in the way stated in the notice of election, and any offset delivery plan, or whether the offset should be delivered in a different way. The administering agency must give the entity a notice that states— the way in which the environmental offset is required to be delivered; and the entity is required to enter into an agreed delivery arrangement within a stated reasonable period; and that the entity may apply for a review of the decision; and how and when the entity may apply for a review of the decision.

An agreed delivery arrangement may be entered into before or after the authority is granted. However, see section 19A for when an agreed delivery arrangement is entered into before the authority is granted. If the administering agency fails to give notice under subsection (3) within 40 business days after receiving the notice of election, the entity may apply for a review of the failure to give the notice, in the way provided for under subsection (8) . The entity and administering agency may amend either or both of the following— the agreed delivery arrangement; an offset delivery plan; by entering into another agreed delivery arrangement before the entity starts the relevant prescribed activity, or the relevant stage of a prescribed activity.
