### sec.100 Minister may add excluded land
The Minister may amend an authority to prospect by adding excluded land for the authority to its area only if—
the authority as amended complies with section 98 ; and
the authority holder consents.
If land mentioned in subsection (1) is added to the area of the authority the land ceases to be excluded land for the authority.
The Minister may amend the provisions of the authority in a way that reflects the inclusion of the excluded land.
Also, the Minister may give the authority holder a notice—
withdrawing, from a stated day, the approval of the work program for the authority; and
directing the holder to lodge a proposed later work program for the authority that—
complies with the later work program requirements; and
changes the work program for the authority to reflect the inclusion of the excluded land.
The amended provisions of the authority or the proposed later work program must not be—
inconsistent with the mandatory conditions for authorities to prospect; or
the same as, or substantially the same as, or inconsistent with, any relevant environmental condition for the authority.
