### sec.318DQ Requirement to have development plan
It is a condition of each coal or oil shale mining lease that its holder must ensure there is a development plan for the lease.
The only ‘development plan’ for a coal or oil shale mining lease is its current initial or later development plan, as approved under this part. See the definition of that term in the dictionary. For the requirement to lodge a proposed later development plan and its approval, see division 4 .
