The Court set aside the Hearings Committee decision because there was no reasonable basis to conclude the removal would have more than minor adverse environmental effects under s95A(2)(a), the Committee failed to consider whether notification would likely produce further relevant information under s95A(1), and it unreasonably disregarded compelling expert officer advice and evidence; accordingly the application must be processed non-notified.
