Use the quality checklist provided for this task

This checklist is tailored to the type of permit or lodgement you submitted (e.g. planning approval, tree removal, building permit). Use it to guide your review.

Confirm the permit or approval is complete and accurate

Double-check names, addresses, approval conditions, expiry dates, and any special requirements listed.

Note any conditions or follow-up actions

Some permits come with conditions (e.g. protection measures, time limits, post-works reporting). Make sure you’ve noted these for future steps.

Avoid future compliance issues now!

If something doesn’t look right, or you're unsure about the approval details, reach out to the issuing authority (or Pro) before proceeding.

  • Check that your approval matches what you applied for.
  • Ensure you understand your approval thoroughly. This will help you avoid having any compliance issues down the track.
