Deemed Provisions 

Schedule 2 of the Planning and Development Act (Local Planning Schemes) Regulations 2015 includes ‘deemed provisions’ for local planning schemes, which is a set of mandatory provisions containing standardised procedures for all local planning schemes. The deemed provisions form part of, and are read in conjunction with, the Scheme Text.   

Deemed provisions for Scheme Text 

The deemed provisions replace various provisions of the Scheme Text and prevail where there is any inconsistency, while provisions of the Scheme Text which are not inconsistent with the deemed provisions continue to apply.
