sec.108 Consideration of plan before approval if no endorsed party

This section applies if there is no endorsed party for the cultural heritage management plan. To approve the plan, the chief executive must be satisfied the plan makes enough provision for how the project is to be managed— to avoid harm to Torres Strait Islander cultural heritage; and to the extent that harm can not reasonably be avoided, to minimise harm to Torres Strait Islander cultural heritage. If the plan is not a cultural heritage management plan developed voluntarily, the chief executive must also be satisfied the plan includes agreement for effective alternate dispute resolution arrangements to deal with issues that may arise in the operation of the plan.
