131 Determination of VCAT on objection
(1) VCAT may make any of the following determinations in respect of an objection referred to it under section 130—
(a) a determination that the proposed compulsory acquisition that is the subject of the objection proceed;
(b) a determination that the proposed compulsory acquisition proceed subject to conditions;
(c) a determination that the proposed compulsory acquisition not proceed.
(2) In making a determination, VCAT must take into account—
(a) the likely impact of the proposed compulsory acquisition on the objector's registered native title rights and interests; and
(b) the measures proposed to be taken to minimise that impact.
(3) To avoid doubt, a determination is not an order of VCAT for the purposes of the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal Act 1998.
