### sec.28 Requirement to review development schemes under Economic Development Act
As soon as practicable after a port overlay takes effect for a priority port’s master planned area, MEDQ must—

If, under subsection (1) (b) , MEDQ decides not to amend the development scheme, MEDQ must, within 14 sitting days after making the decision, table in the Legislative Assembly a report about the reasons for the decision.
