### sec.154 Minister may make stop order
The Minister may make an order (a stop order ) requiring a person to stop stated work or an activity, or prohibiting a person from starting stated work or an activity, at a place that is not a State heritage place.
The Minister may make the order—
if the Minister is satisfied on reasonable grounds that—
the place is likely to satisfy 1 or more of the cultural heritage criteria; and
the work or activity would destroy or substantially reduce the cultural heritage significance of the place; and
whether or not there is a current entry application for the place.
If the Minister makes a stop order in relation to a place for which there is not a current entry application, the chief executive must make an application to enter the place in the register under section 36 .
The Minister may make an order (also a stop order ) requiring a person to stop stated work or an activity, or prohibiting a person from starting stated work or an activity, at a State heritage place if the Minister is satisfied on reasonable grounds that—
the work or activity is not authorised by a development approval; and
the work or activity would destroy or substantially reduce the cultural heritage significance of the place.
A stop order must be served personally or by affixing it in a prominent position in the place.
However, the Minister must not make a stop order in relation to an excluded place in the period mentioned in section 37 that an application can not be made to have the place entered in the register.
