The Panel erred by not expressly applying a bundled approach to the s104D gateway tests; however the error was harmless because the Panel and the comprehensive AEE substantively assessed the project against the objectives and policies of the Proposed Plan and would inevitably reach the same conclusion on the policy gateway (s104D(1)(b)); other alleged errors (Policy 10 application and insupportable effects findings) were not established and the Panel's decision is upheld without remittal.
