50 Community impact assessment guidelines (1) The Minister must, by Gazette notice, issue community impact assessment guidelines to assist in the assessment of the potential impact of issuing a licence or an authority on the community. (2) The Minister may, in the community impact assessment guidelines, require an applicant for a licence or an authority to provide documents or other information, including information about: (a) the suburb, local government area or other area in which the proposed licensed premises would be located; and (b) the benefits the proposed licence or authority would provide to the local and broader community; and (c) the process and result of consultation on the application. (3) The mere addition of a new licence or licensed premises in a community is not taken to be a benefit to the community. (4) The community impact assessment guidelines may have general, limited or varied application.
